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

This 2004 Ford has 17 MOT tests on record with a 94% pass rate and 12,617 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 22-year-old vehicle, presents significant unknown risks and high future maintenance costs.

The vehicle shows extremely low usage, averaging 3,188 miles/year, with a suspiciously low 280 miles/year recorded before May 2021 and 61 miles/year before Aug 2023.

Things to check

  • Aug 2024 MOT failure for Offside Front Outer Road wheel badly distorted (DANGEROUS) — indicates severe structural damage.
  • Extremely low mileage (12,617 miles in 22 years) for a 2004 Ford is a major red flag for unknown history.

Working in its favour

  • No MOT failures recorded for 5 consecutive years (Dec 2018 to May 2021).
  • The single major failure in Aug 2024 was immediately rectified and passed retest.
  • Consistent mileage readings throughout its history, despite being very low.
