AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2011 Ford has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 51,964 miles. While many past failures were promptly rectified, the repeated advisories for tyres and bodywork suggest ongoing maintenance needs.

The vehicle shows a suspiciously low mileage of 1,059 miles between Feb 2019 and Feb 2021, followed by a significant spike to 12,157 miles/year, indicating a major change in usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension arm failures (Nov 2021, Nov 2023, Nov 2025) and advisories (Nov 2021, Nov 2023) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recurring brake disc wear advisories (Nov 2021, Nov 2023) and a major failure (Nov 2023) point to ongoing brake system issues.
  • High annual mileage (12,157 miles/year) since 2021, significantly above UK average, will accelerate wear.
  • Mileage anomaly: only 1,059 miles recorded between Feb 2019 and Feb 2021, suggesting a period of very low use.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-11-23, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • All 3 major failures (suspension, brakes, lights) were immediately rectified and passed retests, showing responsive ownership.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, indicating no immediate safety-critical failures.
  • Consistent high mileage since 2021 suggests regular use and maintenance, despite wear patterns.
