AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Ford has 10 MOT tests on record with a 90% pass rate and 10,277 miles. The very low mileage for its age, combined with a 2020 headlamp failure, suggests potential underlying issues.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage, averaging 1,530 miles/year, with a significant drop in usage from 2017 to 2020 (91 miles/year equivalent) and subsequent very low annual usage, raising odometer integrity concerns.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 13,954 miles over 9 years (Jan 2017 to Feb 2026).
- Mileage dropped to 91 miles/year equivalent between 2017 and 2020 (Jan 2017 to Oct 2020).
- Mileage dropped to 66 miles/year equivalent between 2017 and 2024 (Jan 2017 to Mar 2024).
- 2020-10-20 FAILED MOT for Nearside Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a)) — indicates past maintenance neglect.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-03-05, indicating current roadworthiness and recent inspection.
- No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, showing no immediate safety failures.
- 9 out of 10 MOT tests passed, demonstrating a generally well-maintained vehicle.
- No recurring major failures or structural issues identified in the MOT record.
