This 2016 Ford has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 39,515 miles. While these were addressed, the repeated nature of issues like brakes, suspension, and lights suggests a history of reactive maintenance.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage with 39,515 miles over 10 years, averaging 6,818 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000.
Things to check
- Recurring brake failures in Feb 2020 and Jan 2021 indicate a history of brake system neglect.
- Recurring suspension failures (coil springs) in Feb 2023 and Jan 2024 point to a pattern of suspension wear.
- Recurring light failures (stop lamps, side repeater) in Feb 2020 and Jan 2021 suggest a history of electrical issues.
- Tyre advisories (7 instances) across multiple tests, including Feb 2023 for cracking, indicate ongoing wear.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-22, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, normal mileage of 39,515 miles over 10 years, indicating light usage.
- All major failures (lights, brakes, suspension) were immediately rectified and passed subsequent retests.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT history.
