This 2018 Ford has 5 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 8,840 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 2025 service gap, raises significant ownership and wear concerns.
The vehicle shows 8,840 miles at its first MOT in June 2021, then only 3,381 miles over the next 12 months, indicating a severe and unexplained drop in usage.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below average: 28,545 miles over 8 years (Jan 2018 to Jan 2026), suggesting minimal use or potential issues.
- 2025 Service Gap: No MOT recorded for 2025, suggesting the vehicle may have been off-road or not maintained during this period.
Working in its favour
- No MOT failures recorded: All 5 tests passed, indicating no immediate safety concerns.
- Long MOT validity: Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent annual mileage: Once the initial anomaly, subsequent annual mileage has been consistent, albeit low.
- No dangerous defects: No DANGEROUS-rated defects recorded in the MOT history, which is a positive sign.
