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

This 2006 Ford has 25 MOT tests on record with a 72% pass rate and 26,164 miles. The vehicle's extremely low mileage for its age (26,164 miles in 20 years) is a significant red flag for potential long-term neglect.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,305 miles per year, with a 20-year gap from 2006 to 2025 where only 26,164 miles were recorded.

Things to check

  • MOT history shows 4 failures and 11 tests over 20 years, indicating persistent mechanical issues.
  • Recurring brake failures and advisories from 2019 to 2025, including corroded brake pipes and worn discs.
  • Corrosion advisories on the subframe and sills in 2024 and 2025, suggesting structural rust.
  • Extremely low mileage (26,164 miles in 20 years) for a 2006 vehicle, raising questions about its true condition.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT until August 2026, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering is present in the MOT records.
  • The car has been consistently registered and taxed since its first registration in 2006.
  • No recent major failures or advisories were noted in the most recent MOT tests.
