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

This 2011 Ford has 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 11,581 miles. The vehicle's history shows a pattern of maintenance on wear items, but the recent low annual usage is a concern.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 5,314 miles per year, with a significant drop to 828 miles between Aug 2023 and Aug 2024.

Things to check

  • Extremely low annual mileage (5,314 mi/yr) for a 15-year-old vehicle.
  • Recurring brake advisories (Aug 2015, Aug 2016, Aug 2024) suggest ongoing wear.
  • Two major failures (Aug 2016, Aug 2024) for tyres and a fractured coil spring.
  • Engine overheating and head gasket issues are noted in community knowledge.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until November 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No recurring major failures on critical systems like brakes or suspension.
  • Consistent, albeit low, mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops.
