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

This 2007 Ford has 20 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 37,209 miles. The significant drop in annual mileage between 2019 and 2022, combined with a history of major suspension failures, warrants careful consideration.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Jan 2020 (449 mi/yr equivalent) and Jan 2021 (304 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant drop in annual usage to 2,493 miles between Jan 2022 and Jan 2023.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension advisories across 10 MOTs, including subframe corrosion and fractured coil springs.
  • Brake hose advisories flagged in 7 separate MOT tests, indicating a persistent wear item.
  • Major suspension failures recorded in Jan 2021 and Jan 2026, despite numerous advisories.
  • Significant drop in annual mileage between 2019 and 2022, suggesting periods of inactivity.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until January 2027, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent low mileage for its age, potentially reducing wear and tear.
  • No recent MOT failures, indicating the current condition is passable.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided data.
