This 2015 Ford has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 32,614 miles. While many issues were resolved, the consistent need for repairs suggests a higher maintenance burden.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,968 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, though a 2020 service gap is noted.
Things to check
- Recurring DANGEROUS tyre failures (Jan 2021) and brake pad failures (Jan 2021) indicate reactive maintenance.
- Multiple MAJOR suspension arm ball joint dust cover failures (Jul 2019, Jan 2022) suggest chronic wear.
- Consistent advisories for worn brake discs (Jul 2019, Jan 2021) and tyres (Jul 2018, Sep 2025) point to ongoing wear.
- A 2020 service gap in MOT history is a concern for potential unrecorded maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until September 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent, normal mileage (7,968 mi/yr) aligns with typical UK usage, not suspicious.
- All past failures were promptly rectified and retested, showing responsive owner action.
