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

This 2016 Ford has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 30,922 miles. The high mileage for its age, combined with a 4-year-old MOT record showing no failures, points to a significant underlying issue.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 14,373 miles per year, with a significant spike in 2026 to 147,359 miles, yet the MOT history shows no failures for 4 years.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defect on 2024-03-29 indicates critical safety neglect.
  • Recurring MAJOR failures for windscreen wipers (2022-03-25) and exhaust (2025-03-25) signal systemic issues

Working in its favour

  • Current MOT is valid until 2027-03-30, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT data.
  • The vehicle has consistently passed retests after failures, showing prompt repairs.
  • The 2016 Ford has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for its 2017 variant.
