AI verdict AVOID 49/100

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 16 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 30,375 miles. The vehicle's low mileage for its age, combined with a high number of prior advisories, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 7,944 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a significant 13-year gap in MOT history is a major red flag.

Things to check

  • MOT history is incomplete from 2013 to 2016, a critical data gap for a 2013 vehicle.
  • Recurring major failures in critical safety systems: tyres (5 tests), lights (3 tests), and emissions (1 test).
  • Recurring advisories on brakes (8), steering (3), and suspension (3) indicate systemic neglect.
  • Engine/Oil major failure on 2017-07-03 for emissions, a serious engine concern.
