This 2004 Ford has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 10,801 miles. This makes it unroadworthy and illegal to drive on public roads.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 4,820 miles/yr, averaging only 10,801 miles over 22 years, which is a significant red flag for a 22-year-old vehicle.

Things to check

  • MOT status: Not valid as of 2021-11-02, rendering it unroadworthy and illegal to drive.
  • Mileage integrity: 22-year-old vehicle with only 10,801 miles recorded, indicating severe underuse or potential fraud.
  • Emissions failure: Major failure recorded on 2018-10-23 for exhaust leak, though later passed.

Working in its favour

  • No recurring failures: Despite the 2018 emissions failure, no pattern of repeated system failures is evident.
  • Low mileage: The vehicle has covered only 10,801 miles in 22 years, suggesting minimal wear and tear on components.
