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 22 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 30,102 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with a 3.5× increase in annual mileage, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory shows normal usage until Jan 2021 (79,773 mi), then a significant spike to 118,875 mi by Jan 2026, indicating a 3.5× increase in annual usage.

Things to check

  • MOT HISTORY: 5 failures and 10 recurring advisories across critical systems (suspension, brakes, lights, tyres).
  • MILEAGE ANOMALY: Unusually high mileage jump of 24,329 mi/yr equivalent before Jan 2026, a 3.5× increase from average.
  • AGE & WEAR: 17-year-old vehicle with consistent, high mileage for its age, indicating significant wear and tear.
  • FUTURE COSTS: Recurring suspension and brake advisories will lead to immediate and ongoing repair costs.

Working in its favour

  • MOT VALID: Vehicle has a valid MOT until 2027-01-20, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • MILEAGE CONSISTENT: Normal annual mileage (6,971 mi/yr) until 2021, suggesting regular use.
  • NO ODOMETER FRAUD: No mileage decreases or suspiciously round numbers detected in the MOT history.
  • MANY REPAIRS: Extensive history of repairs and retests, showing proactive maintenance by previous owners.
