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

This 2017 Ford has 7 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 2,405 miles. The very low mileage is a significant red flag for potential odometer fraud.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage averaging 1,238 miles/year, with a 9-year history of only 10,772 miles, indicating potential odometer tampering or very limited use.

Things to check

  • Extremely low mileage: 1,238 mi/yr average over 8 years (Jan 2017–Sep 2025) — a major red flag for odometer fraud.
  • No service history: Absence of documented service history for a 2017 vehicle with such low mileage is a significant concern.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating: 3/5 stars (2017) — below average safety rating for a 2017 model.

Working in its favour

  • Clean MOT pass record: 7 consecutive passes with no failures recorded since first registration.
  • Valid MOT until September 2026: No immediate retest or repair costs are due.
  • No dangerous defects: No DANGEROUS-rated defects have ever been recorded on this vehicle.
  • Consistent annual mileage: While very low, the mileage has been consistent with no sudden spikes or drops.
