AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2014 Ford has 15 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 31,532 miles. The recurring pattern of tyre, brake, and suspension issues, combined with a 2017 head gasket warning, makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory shows normal usage, averaging 9,777 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, but a significant 2-year period of very low usage (Apr 2023-Apr 2024) is noted.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2018-09-20 (40,978 mi) — immediate safety risk.
- Recurring dangerous tyre defects (2018-09-20, 2018-09-21, 2020-10-01) — persistent safety concern.
- Recurring major suspension failures (2020-10-01, 2024-04-01) — structural neglect.
- Recurring major steering failures (2020-10-01, 2024-04-01) — repeated safety system issues.
Working in its favour
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,777 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT history.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-05-07, despite its troubled past.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Apr 2025).
