AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 12,286 miles.
The vehicle shows only 55,457 miles over 14 years, a full 10% below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, which is a critical red flag for odometer integrity.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 55,457 miles over 14 years (typical: 100,633 mi, n=240 FORDs).
- Mileage trajectory shows only 898 miles in 14 months (Nov 2019–Nov 2020), indicating periods of very low or no use.
- Two major failures for lights (Oct 2018, Nov 2022) and recurring advisories for brakes and engine oil suggest neglect.
- No service history provided; timing chain and head gasket issues are common on this 1.2L Ford engine.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-11-08, indicating current roadworthiness and recent safety checks.
- No recurring major failures on critical safety systems like brakes or suspension.
- Engine capacity (1242cc) is generally less expensive to maintain than larger petrol engines.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 3/5 stars (2017) is average for its era, not a significant concern.
