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 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 11,833 miles. The presence of a 2025 service gap and severe community-reported engine issues make this vehicle a high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory shows a significant drop from 54,071 miles in Jan 2024 to 73,316 miles in Jan 2026, indicating a 19,245-mile increase over 2 years, which is highly irregular for a 12-year-old vehicle.
