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

This 2016 Ford has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 17,965 miles. The vehicle's low mileage for its age, combined with a 3-star Euro NCAP safety rating, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 6,887 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, but this is unusually low for a 2016 car.

Things to check

  • Dangerous Nearside Rear Coil spring fractured on 2019-10-15 MOT failure.
  • Dangerous Offside Front Tyre had ply exposed on 2021-09-15 MOT failure.
  • Dangerous Nearside Rear Sub-frame pin or bush excessively worn on 2025-10-15 MOT failure.
  • Recurring suspension and steering failures across multiple tests, indicating chronic neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,887 miles/year since registration.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
  • All dangerous defects were immediately rectified and passed subsequent retests.
  • Valid MOT until October 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
