This 2016 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 10,810 miles. The very low annual usage (3,181 miles/year) is a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
The vehicle shows only 10,810 miles over 10 years, significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, raising serious concerns about mileage integrity.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 10,810 miles over 10 years (Sep 2019) — potential odometer fraud.
- Recurring suspension advisories escalated to a major failure (Offside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint) on Sep 2025.
- Very low annual usage (3,181 miles/year) for a 2016 vehicle suggests limited use or potential issues.
- Two test failures (Sep 2024, Sep 2025) with immediate retests, indicating reactive maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 30 Sep 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, indicating no immediate safety failures.
- Consistent annual mileage increases (albeit very low), suggesting no sudden usage spikes.
