This 2016 Ford has 8 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 26,159 miles. The recurring nature of these wear items, despite being rectified, suggests a pattern of reactive maintenance.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,508 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 26,159 miles recorded since 2016.
Things to check
- Major failure: Nearside Rear Coil spring fractured or broken (2019-03-27 FAILED).
- Recurring suspension advisories: Shock absorber wear noted in 2024 and 2025 tests.
- Recurring brake advisories: Front brake pads wearing thin (2019-03-27 FAILED).
- Recurring tyre advisories: Multiple tyre wear/damage noted across 2019, 2023, 2024, and 2025 tests.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (5,508 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- Single major failure (coil spring) was immediately rectified and passed retest.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
