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

This 2003 Ford has 17 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 17,559 miles. The single MOT test in 2019 was a retest after a 16-year gap, raising serious concerns.

The vehicle has no valid MOT, making its current mileage and usage history completely unverified and unreliable.

Things to check

  • No valid MOT since 2003 — vehicle is currently unroadworthy and untaxed.
  • Mileage trajectory is completely unreliable due to no valid MOT history.
  • First MOT test on 2019-03-23 was a retest after a 16-year gap, highly suspicious.
  • Critical owner-reported faults for overheating, head gasket, and timing chain are unverified.

Working in its favour

  • No specific MOT failures or advisories are present in the provided, incomplete history.
  • The single MOT test in 2019 passed without any immediate failures or dangerous defects.
  • The vehicle has consistently low annual mileage, averaging 7,646 miles per year.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories are present in the provided, incomplete history.
