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

This 2011 Ford has 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 14,945 miles. The 15-year-old vehicle's consistent low annual usage, combined with a history of unaddressed advisories, warrants a thorough pre-purchase inspection.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,583 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage between 2017 and 2022, and a recent spike in 2024.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories and failures across multiple tests (e.g., Oct 2021, Sep 2022, Oct 2024).
  • Exhaust system advisories and failures noted in 6 separate MOT tests (e.g., Oct 2021, Oct 2024).
  • Suspension component advisories and failures noted in 4 separate MOT tests (e.g., Oct 2023, Oct 2024).
  • Major suspension failure (Offside Front Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn) on 2023-10-13.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2026-10-03, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent low annual mileage (5,583 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
