This 2010 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 38,632 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2023-01-05, which is a critical red flag.
The mileage trajectory shows normal usage, averaging 8,897 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the MOT history reveals significant underlying mechanical issues.
Things to check
- MOT status is 'Not valid' with expiry 2023-01-05, indicating it is currently unroadworthy.
- Recurring major failures in suspension (coil springs, ball joints) and tyres (cuts, wear) across multiple tests.
- High-CONCERN advisories for seatbelt damage (May 2019) and tyre cuts (May 2019) remain unresolved.
- Dangerous defects like fractured coil springs (Dec 2021) and tyre cuts (May 2019) indicate severe neglect.
Working in its favour

- Mileage is consistent and normal for its age, averaging 8,897 miles per year.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- The vehicle has a consistent service history, with no large gaps in maintenance.
