AI verdict AVOID 62/100

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 18 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 9,337 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the extremely low usage combined with recurring suspension and tyre advisories makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows only 9,337 miles over 17 years, a significant anomaly from the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, suggesting potential odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • Mileage of 9,337 miles over 17 years is extremely low and highly suspicious, indicating potential odometer fraud.
  • Recurring suspension arm rubber bush advisories (2015, 2019) suggest ongoing wear and potential

Working in its favour

  • Vehicle has a valid MOT until November 2026, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
  • No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects are present in the latest test history.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 3/5 stars is average for its era, not a major concern.
  • The vehicle has a consistent, albeit low, annual mileage pattern since its first MOT.
