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

This 2004 Ford has 15 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 46,266 miles. The vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, making it unroadworthy.

A critical 3-year gap in MOT history (Dec 2007 to Apr 2011) means the vehicle's mileage during that period is completely unverified, raising serious fraud concerns.

Things to check

  • MOT not valid since 2019-01-07, indicating it has been off-road for years.
  • Critical 3-year unverified mileage gap (Dec 2007 to Apr 2011) — potential odometer fraud.
  • 6 test failures across 15 MOTs, with 3 major recurring issues (lights, tyres, brakes).
  • 2 major emissions failures (Apr 2014, Apr 2015) and 5 brake advisories (Apr 2011, Mar 2012).
