AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate. The recurring tyre advisories and past failures also indicate potential underlying issues.
The MOT history shows a 3-year gap in mileage records (Apr 2021 to Aug 2022) and a significant anomaly: 192 miles/yr before Aug 2021, then 3,378 miles/yr average, which is highly suspicious and suggests potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: 192 miles/yr before Aug 2021, then 3,378 miles/yr average — highly suspicious.
- MOT gap: No mileage recorded between Apr 2021 and Aug 2022 — critical data integrity issue.
- Recurring tyre advisories: 6 advisories across 3 tests (Aug 2021, Aug 2024, Aug 2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Brake failure: Major failure for anti-lock braking system warning lamp in Apr 2021.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until August 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring major failures in the last 3 years, suggesting recent repairs.
- Consistent low annual mileage since 2021, potentially reducing wear and tear.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers.
