This 2014 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 22,319 miles. The mileage is low for its age, but the pattern of neglect is a significant red flag.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 6,414 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but this is overshadowed by the severe recurring mechanical failures.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded in 2017 and 2018, indicating severe neglect.
- Recurring MAJOR failures in brakes (2018, 2023), suspension (2018, 2023), and steering (2018) across multiple tests.
- The 2017-07-31 MOT failure for headlamp aim, combined with the 2018-07-10 stop lamp failure, points to systemic electrical issues.
- The 2026-01-01 MOT failure for an exhaust system and a 2026-01-01 coil spring failure is a critical safety concern for a 2014 vehicle.
Working in its favour
- Mileage is consistently low, averaging 6,414 miles/year, suggesting light use.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-08-12, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT history.
- The 2017-07-31 MOT pass after a failure shows some immediate rectification of issues.
