This 2016 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 39,954 miles. This suggests a history of reactive maintenance.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,590 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, including a period of very low annual usage (2019-2023).
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jun 2025): Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2025-06-03 (76,775 mi) after ADVISORY on 2024-05-29 (76,775 mi).
- Recurring tyre advisories (2020, 2022, 2025) and failures (2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring brake pad advisories (2024) and failure (2025) suggest a pattern of deferred maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-06-03, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent, normal mileage trajectory (9,590 mi/yr) with no fraud indicators.
- No major structural corrosion or recurring suspension failures noted in MOT history.
