This 2010 Ford has 18 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 25,393 miles. The vehicle's past issues with overheating and timing chain problems, as reported by the community, further complicate its assessment.
The MOT history shows a critical mileage anomaly: 53,192 miles in July 2018, but only 25,393 miles in April 2013, indicating potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Steering failure in Nov 2024, followed by a PASS just days later, is a serious red flag.
- DANGEROUS defect: Steering failure in Nov 2023, followed by a PASS, indicates a pattern of critical safety issues.
- Recurring Suspension failures: Major failures in Nov 2020, Nov 2023, and Nov 2024, with related advisories, point to chronic neglect.
- Odometer fraud: Mileage shows 53,192 miles in July 2018 but only 25,393 miles in April 2013, a major integrity concern.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until November 2026, indicating current roadworthiness despite past issues.
- Consistent annual mileage since 2018, averaging 6,444 miles/year, suggesting light use.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT in November 2025.
- The vehicle has a valid tax status, which is a positive for immediate compliance.
