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

This 2009 Ford has 17 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 15,347 miles. The vehicle's age and low annual usage present significant long-term wear risks.

The vehicle shows exceptionally low annual usage, averaging only 4,689 miles per year, with a significant 3-year gap in MOT records (2020, 2025) suggesting periods of inactivity or off-road storage.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories (Jul 2019, Dec 2024, Jan 2026) escalated to a DANGEROUS defect (Dec 2022).
  • Recurring headlamp failures (Dec 2022, Jan 2023, Dec 2023) indicate a persistent electrical or mechanical issue.
  • Recurring suspension arm advisories (Jun 2012, Jun 2015) suggest ongoing wear and tear on critical safety components.
  • Major failure for windscreen washer (Jan 2026) is a basic safety item that should never fail.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until January 2027, offering immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (4,689 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
