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

This 2008 Ford has 19 MOT tests on record with a 84% pass rate and 22,368 miles. While it has a long MOT, the consistent wear on critical systems suggests significant upcoming maintenance costs.

The vehicle exhibits very low annual mileage averaging 4,492 miles per year, with a notable drop in usage between 2019 and 2021, but no signs of odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories from 2019 to 2023, escalating to dangerous defects, indicate chronic wear.
  • Suspension arm corrosion noted in Apr 2022 and Apr 2023, suggesting structural weakness.
  • Engine MIL inoperative or malfunctioning (Apr 2020) and exhaust issues (Apr 2019) point to underlying engine problems.
  • Brake disc wear and pitting (Apr 2026) and pad wear (Apr 2026) are recurring issues.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Vehicle has a valid MOT until April 2027, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
  • The 5.4L diesel engine is known for its durability and reliability.
