This 2013 Ford has 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 54,394 miles. The mileage trajectory is consistent, but the underlying mechanical issues and owner's maintenance habits present an unacceptable risk.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,640 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, but the car has been driven hard since 2019.
