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 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 30,912 miles. The vehicle's mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, showing extremely low annual usage for its age, which, combined with the MOT findings, presents an unacceptable level of risk.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage for its age, averaging only 7,318 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage from 2019 to 2023, raising odometer fraud concerns.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre failure on 2019-05-13, escalating from advisory to failure.
  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2023-12-01, indicating severe neglect.
  • Recurring suspension arm advisories (2022, 2026) and CV boot failures (2023, 2025) signal chronic neglect.
  • Engine oil major failure on 2025-03-25, a critical system for a diesel engine.

Working in its favour

  • MOT valid until 2027-03-26, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No mileage anomalies detected in the most recent MOTs (Mar 2026).
  • No recurring failures of the same system in the last 3 years.
  • Consistent annual mileage since 2019, despite low overall numbers.
