AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2001 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 29,941 miles. While a single test passed in 2005, the complete absence of subsequent MOT data makes this vehicle unroadworthy and uninsurable.

No mileage trajectory can be established due to the complete absence of MOT history, which is a major concern for a 25-year-old vehicle.

Things to check

  • No MOT history recorded for a 25-year-old vehicle (registered 2001).
  • First and only recorded MOT test was in 2005, with no subsequent data.
  • MOT expired 2019-08-19; vehicle is currently not valid for road use.
  • Rear subframe corrosion noted as an advisory in Aug 2018, a serious structural concern.

Working in its favour

  • Single MOT test passed in 2005 with no recorded failures or dangerous defects.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage anomalies in the provided, limited data.
  • Ford models from this era are generally known for their durability and parts availability.
