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

This 2007 Ford has 22 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 31,093 miles.

The mileage trajectory shows consistent, normal usage with no anomalies, averaging 6,011 miles/year, which is below the UK average of 8,000.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc wear advisories (Jul 2021, Sep 2025) indicate ongoing maintenance needs.
  • Persistent suspension advisories (coil spring, ball joint, exhaust) across multiple tests (2019-2025) suggest chronic wear.
  • Multiple headlamp failures (Apr 2019, Jul 2020) and advisories (2019-2025) point to a persistent electrical issue.
  • Engine overheating and coolant migration (community-reported) are serious, unverified risks for a 19-year-old vehicle.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until September 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, normal mileage for its age (6,011 mi/yr) suggests light, non-abusive use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
