This 2016 Ford has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 21,055 miles. The car's history suggests potential underlying issues or a data discrepancy.
The vehicle shows a critical 10-year mileage anomaly, with only 21,055 miles recorded since registration in Jan 2016, significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 21,055 miles over 10 years (Jan 2016) — a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
- Two major suspension failures (Sep 2023, Sep 2025) for excessively worn sub-frame pins/bushes — indicates structural neglect or poor maintenance.
- Recent MOT failure (Sep 2025) for excessively worn nearside rear sub-frame pin/bush — suggests immediate repair costs.
- Consistent low annual mileage (997 miles in last year) raises serious odometer integrity concerns.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until September 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring failures on the same system across multiple tests.
- Immediate retest passes after failures show issues were addressed.
- No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
