AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2014 Ford has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 42,598 miles. The mileage is consistent, but the pattern of issues suggests potential underlying neglect or poor maintenance.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,309 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a significant 2020 MOT gap is noted.
Things to check
- Recurring brake disc wear (Oct 2022, Mar 2023) and suspension ball joint play (Jan 2022, Mar 2024) indicate systemic neglect.
- Multiple major failures for lights (Oct 2022, Jan 2022) and steering (Mar 2024, Jan 2022) point to a reactive maintenance approach.
- The 2020 MOT gap suggests the vehicle may have been off-road or not properly maintained during that period.
- Consistent low annual mileage (e.g., 2,436 miles in 2023) can mask underlying issues or poor maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Consistent, low annual mileage (8,309 miles/year) suggests light use, potentially extending component life.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until March 2026, indicating it currently meets basic safety standards.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Mar 2025), suggesting current roadworthiness.
