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

This 2015 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 13,582 miles. The vehicle's history of engine issues, as reported by the community, further compounds the risk.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,473 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Feb 2026): Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
  • Dangerous tyre defect (Feb 2022) and dangerous brake defect (Feb 2026) indicate recurring safety-critical issues.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (Jan 2019, Jan 2020, Jan 2021, Jan 2024, Jan 2025) and brake disc advisories (Jan 2025, Feb 2026) show a clear pattern of wear.
  • Community-reported engine issues (turbo, head gasket, timing chain) for 5.4L engines are a major concern for this 1.6L Ford.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until February 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (5,473 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
  • No major structural corrosion or suspension failures are evident in the MOT history.
