AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Ford has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 21,140 miles. These indicate past neglect or poor maintenance.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual usage averaging 6,267 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent normal increase.
Things to check
- 2021-10-07: DANGEROUS brake failures (front and rear pads) indicate severe neglect.
- 2023-10-04: PRS headlamp aim failure suggests poor maintenance or accident history.
- 2025-10-06: Recent clean MOT pass after 2023 headlamp failure is a borderline 'just passed' sign.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-10-06, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (6,267 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- No recurring major system failures beyond the 2021 brake issues.
- Recent clean MOT pass (2025-10-06) after addressing prior issues.
