This 2012 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 27,274 miles. The mileage is significantly below average, with a suspiciously low period and a high initial jump, raising concerns about its true condition and potential odometer integrity.
The mileage trajectory shows a significant jump to 13,727 miles/year before Jul 2016, followed by a suspiciously low 390 miles/year average from Jan 2021 to Jan 2024, and only 3,170 miles/year from Feb 2023 to Oct 2025, indicating potential odometer issues.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension advisories (e.g., Oct 2025, Feb 2023) suggest ongoing wear and potential neglect.
- Recurring tyre advisories (e.g., Oct 2025, Feb 2023) indicate a history of poor maintenance.
- Significantly below average mileage (4,517 mi/yr) for its age, with a suspiciously low period (Jan 2021-Jan 2024).
- Three MOT failures with no defect details (e.g., Jul 2019, Feb 2023) are a significant concern for transparency.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-30, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures, showing responsive ownership.
- No recurring major system failures (e.g., brakes, steering) that would indicate deep-seated issues.
