This 2012 Ford has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 73,422 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of neglect and high mileage demand thorough investigation.
The mileage trajectory shows a suspiciously low 1,527 miles/year equivalent before Jun 2023, followed by a significant spike in usage, indicating a potential change in ownership or usage patterns.
Things to check
- Dangerous tyre failures on 2019-01-03 (front tyres) and 2023-06-12 (rear tyres) indicate severe neglect.
- Mileage anomaly: 1,527 miles/year equivalent before Jun 2023, then 16,462 miles/year — a significant change.
- Recurring suspension arm advisories (2019-01-03, 2021-12-22) suggest ongoing wear and potential future costs.
- The vehicle has been on SORN since 2024-06-12, meaning no recent MOT or safety checks.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT certificate, albeit with a long expiry date of 2024-06-12.
- Consistent high annual mileage suggests regular use and potential for good fuel economy.
