This 2012 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 16,365 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2024-01-26, which is highly irregular.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,219 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low annual usage.

Things to check

  • MOT status is 'Not valid' with expiry 2024-01-26, a critical and unexplained discrepancy.
  • Recurring brake failures (Jul 2018, Jan 2022, Jan 2023) and tyre failures (Jun 2016, Jan 2021, Jan 2023) indicate systemic neglect.
  • Offside Rear Brake pad(s) wearing thin advisory (Jul 2018) escalated to DANGEROUS failure (Jan 2023).
  • Offside Rear Anti-roll bar linkage fractured (Jan 2023) is a recent and significant suspension failure.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,219 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a consistent service history, with no large gaps in MOT testing.
