AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Ford has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 3,295 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the extremely low usage combined with recurring tyre failures and a 2-year gap in MOT history present unacceptable risks.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 15,674 miles over 10 years (average 1,575 miles/year), which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year and raises serious odometer fraud concerns.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 15,674 miles over 10 years (Jan 2016–Dec 2025).
- Mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low annual usage (1,575 mi/yr), raising odometer fraud concerns.
- Two DANGEROUS tyre failures (Nov 2022) and one advisory (Nov 2022) indicate recurring structural issues.
- Two major headlamp aim failures (Nov 2022, Nov 2024) and four related advisories suggest electrical neglect.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until December 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring major mechanical failures (e.g., engine, transmission) are evident in the MOT history.
- The vehicle has consistently passed retests after failures, showing issues were addressed.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off markers or outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
