AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2002 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 34,373 miles. Recurring tyre advisories and a past major suspension failure also warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows normal annual usage (7,578 mi/yr) until a 3-year MOT gap (Nov 2012–May 2016) where mileage is unverified, followed by consistent low annual mileage.
Things to check
- Long MOT gap: No test recorded for 3 years (Nov 2012–May 2016), with unverified mileage.
- Recurring Tyres: 7 advisories across 3 tests (2008, 2010, 2011) indicate chronic wear.
- Major Suspension Failure: Front suspension locking device ineffective (Jan 2007) is a significant structural concern.
- Dangerous Defect: Offside Front Wheel nut missing (Jan 2007) is a serious safety failure.
Working in its favour
- Consistent Low Mileage: Average annual usage of 7,578 miles/year, well below UK average.
- Immediate Retests: All 2 failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or next day.
- No Recurring Major Failures: No major system failures have recurred since the initial 2007 suspension failure.
- Long Service Life: Vehicle has been maintained for over 24 years, showing some level of care.
