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

This 2008 Ford has 20 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 39,196 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's age and repeated issues warrant a thorough inspection.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,699 miles/year, with a notable drop in annual usage from 2019 to 2021 (4,514 miles in 2021), but no signs of fraud.

Things to check

  • Major exhaust failure on 2025-03-22 after 8 years of advisories.
  • Recurring suspension and tyre advisories across multiple tests.
  • Engine overheating and head gasket issues reported by previous owners.
  • Timing chain and belt wear noted in community reports for this model.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-03-12, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,699 miles/year.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Mar 2026).
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or suspicious mileage patterns.
