AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Ford has 25 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 31,850 miles. The vehicle's 17-year age, combined with its extensive and unresolved issues, makes it a high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 8,474 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Apr 2026): Offside Rear Inner Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick down to metal (1.1.13 (a)
- DANGEROUS defect: Tyres (3 instances) and brakes (1 instance) recorded in MOT history.
- Recurring major failures: Brakes (5 failures), Suspension (3 failures), and Steering (2 failures).
- Escalating brake wear: Apr 2019 advisory escalated to DANGEROUS on Apr 2026.
Working in its favour
- Consistent mileage: Average 8,474 miles/year, aligning with typical UK usage.
- Valid MOT: Currently holds a valid MOT certificate until April 2027.
- No odometer fraud: Mileage readings are consistent with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- Immediate retests: All failures were promptly rectified and retested successfully.
