AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Ford has 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 16,395 miles. The history of overheating and timing chain issues from the community report is a major concern for this model.
The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 5,615 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 1,976 miles between Oct 2023 and Oct 2024).
Things to check
- Recurring suspension advisories (e.g., fractured coil spring, excessive play) across multiple tests.
- Persistent tyre wear advisories (e.g., worn close to limit, cuts) in 4 separate tests.
- Major emissions failure in May 2020, followed by a retest PASS, indicating a significant underlying issue.
- Major steering linkage ball joint excessive play failure in May 2024, a critical safety component.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-14, offering immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent mileage trajectory, despite low annual usage, shows no suspicious drops or round numbers.
- No recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering (except for the recent major failure).
- Immediate retest passes for most failures, indicating prompt owner attention to rectify issues.
