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 73% pass rate and 29,290 miles. The vehicle's 15-year age, combined with a 2020 service gap and a 2017-04-25 advisory for child seat inspection, raises significant red flags for a buyer.

The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal usage, averaging 9,535 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes.

Things to check

  • 2020 SERVICE GAP: No MOT recorded for 2020, indicating potential off-road use or unverified maintenance.
  • EXTENSIVE RECURRING ISSUES: Suspension and steering advisories appear in 6+ separate tests, indicating chronic neglect.
  • CRITICAL SAFETY RISK: DANGEROUS tyre defect recorded in Apr 2022, followed by repeated tyre failures and advisories.
  • MAJOR BODYWORK FAILURE: Major failure for bodywork in Apr 2024, suggesting poor repair quality or hidden damage.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent Mileage: Mileage has consistently increased, averaging 9,535 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • Long MOT Validity: The current MOT is valid until 2027-05-06, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Immediate Retests: All failures were immediately rectified and retested, showing the owner's ability to address issues promptly.
  • No Odometer Fraud: Mileage readings are consistent and show no signs of tampering or rollbacks.
