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

This 2008 Ford has 22 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 11,788 miles. The vehicle's low mileage for its age, combined with a 2025 service gap and unresolved issues, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage (6,330 miles/yr) for its 18 years, with a significant drop in usage from 2023 onwards (e.g., 5,034 miles in 2024).

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures (Sep 2019, Nov 2023) and advisories (Sep 2019, Nov 2023) indicate chronic neglect.
  • Brake system has persistent advisories (7 items) and failures (Nov 2023, Nov 2024) across multiple tests.
  • Tyre condition advisories (8 items) are recurring, suggesting a pattern of poor maintenance.
  • A 2025 service gap is noted, which is highly unusual for a vehicle of this age.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until January 2027, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering is present in the MOT history.
  • The car has consistently passed its MOTs since the first test in 2011, showing it has always been roadworthy.
