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

This 2006 Ford has 19 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 10,581 miles. The vehicle's age and past advisories on critical components warrant a thorough inspection.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 3,831 miles per year, with a significant spike in recent years (10,115 miles in 2024-2025).

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures (coil springs) in 2022 and 2024 indicate ongoing structural wear.
  • Recurring brake hose advisories in 2022 and 2024 suggest a pattern of neglect.
  • Extremely low annual mileage (3,831 miles/yr) for a 20-year-old vehicle is a major red flag for long-term reliability.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 3/5 stars for a 2006 Ford is below average for its age.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until July 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded in the latest tests.
  • Consistent, albeit low, mileage trajectory suggests no odometer fraud.
  • No recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering in the last 2 years.
