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

This 2005 Ford has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 24,666 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of neglect and low recent mileage raises significant concerns.

The mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low usage before Oct 2014 (169 mi/yr equivalent) and again before May 2016 (27 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage, indicating periods of inactivity or very light use.

Things to check

  • May 2017 MOT failure for Nearside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements (4.1.E.1).
  • Oct 2014 MOT failure for Nearside Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (3.5.1g).
  • Oct 2014 MOT failure for Offside Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (3.5.1g).
  • Aug 2013 MOT failure for Nearside Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (3.5.1g).

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
