This 2016 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 27,621 miles. The repeated windscreen wiper failures are a significant red flag for owner diligence.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 8,070 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine odometer readings.
Things to check
- Recurring windscreen wiper failures (Mar 2019, Sep 2020, Sep 2022) indicate poor owner maintenance.
- Persistent tyre advisories (14 flags) across 6 tests suggest chronic wear and neglect.
- Exhaust and suspension advisories (5+ flags) across 3 tests point to ongoing structural wear.
- Four test failures (Mar 2019, Sep 2020, Sep 2022, Sep 2023) for various defects, not isolated issues.
Working in its favour
- Consistent, normal mileage for its age (27,621 mi over 10 years).
- Valid MOT until September 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects (e.g., brakes, suspension).
- Immediate retests after failures show issues were addressed, albeit reactively.
