This 2017 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 19,352 miles. However, a clear pattern of suspension and tyre advisories, including two major coil spring failures, indicates a history of wear and tear issues.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,344 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.
Things to check
- 2026-04-14 MOT: Advisory for exhaust system wear, a recurring issue.
- 2022-04-14 MOT: Major failure for Nearside Rear Coil spring fractured.
- 2021-05-05 MOT: Major failure for Offside Rear Coil spring fractured.
- 2021-05-05 MOT: Recurring advisories for Nearside Rear Suspension arm wear.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-24, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (6,344 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
- Both major coil spring failures were promptly rectified and passed subsequent retests.
