AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 38,784 miles. A recent DANGEROUS brake failure in January 2026, despite a clean pass in the same month, is a significant concern.
The vehicle shows consistent annual usage, averaging 10,349 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes in its 38,784-mile history.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2026-01-27, despite a clean pass on the same day, is a major red flag.
- Recurring tyre advisories and failures across 6 tests (2019-2022) indicate a chronic wear issue.
- Recurring brake disc and pad advisories and failures across 4 tests (2021-2026) point to a systemic neglect of critical safety components.
- The 2025-11-25 MOT gap suggests a period of unrecorded use or a potential SORN, requiring clarification.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-01-27, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,349 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- Immediate retests for failures show the owner's proactive approach to rectifying issues.
