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

This 2016 Ford has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 18,660 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a mileage anomaly, raises significant concerns about its true condition and usage.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 18,660 miles over 10 years, with a significant anomaly of only 54 miles driven between the failed MOT on 2025-07-31 and the passed MOT on 2025-08-03.

Things to check

  • Recurring DANGEROUS tyre failures in Jun 2021 (all four tyres) after ADVISORY in May 2020.
  • Recurring MAJOR brake pad failures in Jun 2021 (front pads) after ADVISORY in May 2020.
  • Recurring ADVISORY brake disc wear (front discs) in Jun 2021 and May 2020.
  • Extremely low mileage of 18,660 miles over 10 years, with a 54-mile anomaly in 2025.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until August 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No outstanding MOT failures or dangerous defects since the 2025-08-03 retest.
  • Consistent annual mileage increases, despite being very low, show regular use.
