AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2013 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 5,537 miles. While recent tests show resolution, the consistent wear on these systems suggests a need for immediate and ongoing maintenance.
The vehicle shows very low annual mileage averaging 5,958 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000 miles annually, but the recent spike in 2024-2026 suggests a change in usage.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre failures and advisories across 7 tests (Feb 2019, May 2022, Feb 2021) indicate chronic wear.
- Brake disc and pad advisories in Feb 2019 and Jan 2020 escalated to dangerous failures, showing a pattern of neglect.
- The 2013 Ford has a 3-star Euro NCAP safety rating, which is below average for a vehicle of its age.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until June 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (5,958 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
- No recurring failures on the same system after initial repairs, indicating responsive owner fixes.
