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

This 2014 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 18,965 miles. The recent advisory for subframe corrosion is a significant concern.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 4,910 miles per year, with a notable drop to just 530 miles between April 2025 and April 2026.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension advisories (shock absorbers, corroded coil springs) across multiple tests.
  • Recurring brake disc advisories (worn, pitted) on both front wheels in April 2019.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (worn, cracking) on all four wheels in April 2019 and 2020.
  • Recent advisory for subframe corrosion in April 2026 is a major structural concern.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until April 2027, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No major structural failures recorded in the MOT history.
  • Consistent, albeit low, mileage trajectory over its 12-year lifespan.
