This 2009 Ford has 19 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 29,785 miles. The vehicle's mileage has been inconsistent, with a significant drop in annual usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring steering/suspension failures (Jun 2020, Jun 2021, Jun 2022) indicate chronic neglect.
  • Major suspension failure (Jun 2022) for a fractured coil spring is a significant safety concern.
  • Unusually large mileage difference (303 mi) on 11 Jun 2021 suggests a retest issue.
  • The vehicle is currently Untaxed and has a Not valid MOT status, requiring immediate attention.

Working in its favour

  • Recent clean MOT pass on 2024-08-01, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage history prior to 2022, showing normal usage for its age.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT test.
