Things to check
- Vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, requiring immediate re-registration and inspection.
- High annual mileage (18,229 mi/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 mi/yr) suggests increased wear and tear.
- A 2011 service gap is noted in the MOT history, indicating a period of potential neglect.
- The 2005 Ford Diesel is not ULEZ-compliant, incurring a daily charge of £12.50 in London.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a consistent high mileage, indicating regular use and maintenance.
- Recent MOT passes in 2013, 2014, and 2015 show the owner's diligence in keeping it roadworthy.
- No recurring major failures on critical systems like brakes or suspension are evident in the MOT history.
- The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 3/5 stars is average for its era, not a significant concern.
