AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2013 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 91% pass rate and 23,380 miles. The high number of advisories, particularly on brakes and subframe corrosion, suggests a reactive maintenance approach.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual usage averaging 7,067 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent low of 5,255 miles in 2023-2024.
Things to check
- Multiple emissions failures (2020, 2022) and advisories (2021, 2023) suggest a history of engine or DPF issues.
- High number of advisories (8) across multiple tests, especially brakes and subframe, indicates significant wear.
- The 2013 Ford is not ULEZ-compliant, incurring a daily charge in London.
- The 2.0L Ecoboost engine variant has a history of head gasket and overheating issues (community knowledge).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-11-24, offering immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage (7,067 mi/yr) with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No recent MOT failures, with the single 2022 failure immediately rectified.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided history.
