AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2007 Ford has 18 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 12,697 miles. While recent MOTs are clean, the underlying model weaknesses warrant thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 3,506 miles per year, with a notable drop from 54,156 miles in Sep 2018 to 57,976 miles in Sep 2019, and subsequent very low annual increments.
Things to check
- Extremely low annual mileage (3,506 mi/yr) for a 19-year-old vehicle suggests long periods of inactivity.
- Multiple owner-reported faults for overheating, head gasket, and timing chain issues are a major concern for a 2007 Ford.
- The 2012-08-28 advisory for 'Offside Front Tyre worn close to the legal limit' and 'USER ENTERED: wheel nuts not visable' indicates a lack of routine maintenance.
- The 2019-09-09 failure for 'Offside Rear Stop lamp(s) not working' followed by a same-day retest suggests a reactive approach to repairs.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until September 2026, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- No dangerous defects or recurring major failures are present in the MOT history.
- The 2019-09-09 failure for 'Offside Rear Stop lamp(s) not working' was immediately rectified, showing responsive ownership.
- Consistent low mileage suggests minimal wear and tear on consumables, despite the age.
