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

This 2014 Ford has 18 MOT tests on record with a 56% pass rate and 39,214 miles. The mileage trajectory is suspicious, with a significant drop in annual usage, and the vehicle's SORN status raises further questions.

The mileage shows a consistent increase from 39,214 miles in 2017 to 102,092 miles in 2026, averaging 8,266 miles per year, but a significant drop in annual usage is noted.

Things to check

  • Dangerous Tyre defect on 2018-06-12 (47,427 mi) and 2019-06-05 (54,080 mi).
  • Dangerous Brake defect on 2018-06-12 (47,427 mi) and 2019-06-05 (54,080 mi).

  • Recurring Major Failure for Suspension on 2020-06-12 (60,900 mi), 2021-05-14 (67,667 mi), 2022-06-10 (75,041 mi), 2023-05-12 (82,443 mi), and 2024-05-14 (91,189 mi).

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until June 2027, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT history.
  • The car has consistently passed retests after failures, showing issues were addressed.
  • No recurring failures for the engine itself, which is a positive for a 2014 Ford.
