AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Ford has 13 MOT tests on record with a 92% pass rate and 9,706 miles. The recurring tyre advisories also warrant careful inspection.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage averaging 1,405 miles/year, with a significant drop in annual usage from 2019 onwards (e.g., +487 miles from Jan 2024 to Jan 2025), suggesting potential odometer tampering or long periods of inactivity.
Things to check
- Extremely low mileage: 19,798 miles over 14 years (Jan 2012 to Jan 2026) — well below UK average.
- Mileage significantly decreased: +487 miles from Jan 2024 to Jan 2025 — a clear anomaly.
- First MOT test on 2019-02-15 at 15,081 miles — a 3-year gap from registration.
Working in its favour
- Strong MOT pass record: 8 of 9 tests passed with no dangerous defects recorded.
- Long MOT validity: Valid MOT until 2027-02-15, providing significant peace of mind.
- No recurring major failures: Single failure in 2021 was immediately rectified and passed.
- Consistent annual mileage: Despite low total, annual usage has been consistent since 2019.
