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

This 2009 Ford has 21 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 15,354 miles. However, a pattern of suspension and brake issues, combined with a history of significant engine and timing component failures, raises significant concerns.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,071 miles per year, with a notable spike in usage from 2022 onwards, but no suspicious drops or round numbers.

Things to check

  • Offside Front Shock absorbers had a serious fluid leak (Sep 2022 failure).
  • Nearside Front Suspension arm ball joint dust cover failed (Sep 2022 failure).
  • Brake disc worn, pitted or scored (Aug 2020 advisory), indicating potential future brake work.
  • Recurring suspension advisories (e.g., Sep 2022, Oct 2022) suggest ongoing wear and tear.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until October 2026, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (5,071 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Sep 2025).
  • Immediate retests after failures demonstrate prompt owner attention to safety issues.
