This 2016 Ford has 8 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 11,666 miles. The car's extremely low annual usage (3,670 miles) for its age is a major red flag.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 11,666 miles at Dec 2019, then only 25,040 miles by Dec 2022, indicating a 4-year period of extremely low usage (likely 0 miles) or potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 36,470 miles over 10 years (Jan 2016 to Dec 2025).
- Critical 4-tyre advisory recurrence (Dec 2019, Dec 2020) indicates chronic neglect of wear items.
- Dec 2020 MOT failure with no defect details provided for a 4-tyre advisory is highly suspicious.
- The 1-mileage anomaly (4-year period of near-zero usage) is a major red flag for odometer integrity.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until December 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded.
- Immediate retest after Dec 2020 failure shows owner addressed issues promptly.
- Consistent annual mileage increases since Dec 2020, despite low overall total.
