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

This 2013 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 16,292 miles. The vehicle's past and current condition present unacceptable risks.

The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 49,692 miles over 13 years (average 3,954 miles/year), significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year, raising odometer fraud concerns.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 49,692 mi (13 years), 3,954 mi/yr — high fraud risk.
  • Recurring DANGEROUS tyre failures (Jul 2018, Jul 2021) — persistent safety neglect.
  • Recurring DANGEROUS brake disc failures (Jul 2018, Jul 2021) — persistent safety neglect.
  • 4 test failures in 12 MOTs (Jul 2019, Jul 2020, Jul 2021, Jul 2025) — high failure rate.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until July 2026 — current roadworthiness certification.
  • No recurring major system failures (e.g., engine, transmission) — core mechanical integrity appears intact.
