This 2011 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 121,421 miles. The vehicle's age and high usage, combined with a 15-year-old timing chain, present significant long-term risks.
The vehicle shows high annual usage (23,089 miles/yr) with a suspiciously low 748 miles recorded between Oct 2014 and Sep 2020, suggesting a period of inactivity or potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure (Aug 2020) indicates significant wear and potential neglect.
- High annual mileage (23,089 miles/yr) suggests heavy use, accelerating component wear.
- 15-year-old timing chain (no scheduled replacement) is a major long-term reliability concern.
- Recent MOT expiry (2021-09-16) and current 'Not valid' status means immediate re-MOT is required.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- No recurring major failures across different systems, suggesting isolated issues.
- Immediate retest passes (Apr 2019, Sep 2020) after initial failures show owner responsiveness.
- Consistent high mileage suggests regular use, potentially reducing unexpected component wear.
