This 2008 Ford has 5 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 52,756 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2015-03-11, which is a major red flag.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 17,231 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes in the MOT history.

Things to check

  • MOT status is 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2015-03-11, indicating it has been off-road for years.
  • High annual mileage (17,231 mi/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 mi/yr) suggests heavy commercial or fleet use.
  • The 2014-03-07 MOT advisory for a suspension arm is a critical wear item on a high-mileage vehicle.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
  • Perfect MOT pass record with 5 consecutive passes and zero failures across all tests.
  • No dangerous defects or major failures recorded in the MOT history.
  • Consistent high mileage suggests regular use and maintenance, potentially extending component life.
