This 2016 Ford has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 18,341 miles. The pattern of tyre wear across multiple tests suggests a potential underlying issue.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,871 miles per year, with a notable drop to 1,700 miles in the last year (Oct 2024 to Oct 2025).
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 6 tests (Sep 2021, Sep 2022, Oct 2023, Oct 2024, Oct 2025) indicate a persistent wear issue.
- Major failure for Offside Rear Coil spring fractured (Aug 2020) points to past suspension neglect.
- Low annual mileage (4,871 mi/yr) for a 2016 vehicle may suggest limited use or potential storage issues.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, providing peace of mind for immediate roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,871 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential lower wear.
- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects in recent tests, indicating current safety.
- Immediate retest passes after failures (e.g., Aug 2020, Sep 2022) show responsive owner action.
