AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Ford has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 17,016 miles.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,954 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent period of lower usage (Mar 2025: 83,687 mi, Mar 2026: 91,287 mi).
Things to check
- Recurring advisories on tyres (Feb 2021), suspension (Feb 2021), and lights (Feb 2021) across multiple tests indicate ongoing wear.
- A 2-year MOT gap (2022, 2023) suggests periods of off-road use or lack of maintenance.
- The 2024-03-02 retest after a failure, followed by a 2025-03-01 retest after another failure, suggests reactive maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-03-12 provides significant peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage (8,954 mi/yr) aligns with typical UK usage, not suspiciously low or high.
- No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
