AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2013 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 39,563 miles. However, a pattern of recurring tyre and suspension issues, combined with a history of severe engine problems, warrants careful consideration.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,662 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension advisories (2022, 2023, 2025) and coil spring fracture (2023) indicate ongoing wear.
- Brake disc wear advisories (2021, 2022) suggest a need for regular maintenance.
- A DANGEROUS tyre defect in Feb 2023, following a Feb 2021 advisory, points to a history of tyre neglect.
- Community-reported head gasket and timing chain issues for 2.0L EcoBoost engines are a significant long-term risk.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-17 provides peace of mind for immediate roadworthiness.
- Consistent, normal mileage for a 13-year-old vehicle (7,662 mi/yr) suggests light use.
- No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
