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 21 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 44,736 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's age and extensive advisory history warrant a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,723 miles/year, with a notable drop in annual usage from 10,000+ miles to 2,500-4,700 miles between 2021 and 2026, suggesting a change in driving habits or periods of inactivity.
Things to check
- Recurring major failures in brakes (Jul 2018, Jul 2019) and emissions (Jul 2018, Jul 2019) indicate systemic neglect.
- Extensive recurring advisories for suspension (14 items), exhaust (5 items), and tyres (5 items) across multiple tests.
- Consistent pattern of minor defects escalating to major failures (e.g., exhaust advisory Jul 2018, then major failure Jul 2019).
- The vehicle has been off-road for a significant period (2020), raising questions about its maintenance history.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
- Valid MOT until January 2027, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (7,723 miles/year) suggests light use and potential longevity.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT history.
