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 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 37,458 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's age and recurring mechanical problems warrant significant caution.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,060 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the car has been largely unused since 2010.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2022-03-22 (rear discs seriously weakened).
  • Recurring suspension failures (coil springs) on 2022-03-22 and 2023-03-22.
  • Brake system imbalances noted on 2011-09-21 and 2012-09-19.
  • Vehicle has been Untaxed since 2007, indicating long periods of inactivity.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, low annual mileage averaging 7,060 miles/year.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
  • All past MOT failures were immediately rectified and passed on retest.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT.
