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 10 MOT tests on record with a 90% pass rate and 20,002 miles. However, a dangerous brake failure in May 2026, combined with a history of recurring tyre advisories, warrants careful consideration.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual usage averaging 6,619 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine mileage.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (May 2026): Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
  • Dangerous brake failure on 2026-05-10, indicating critical wear.
  • Brake pad wear advisory on 2024-05-10, escalating to dangerous failure by 2026-05-10.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
  • Valid MOT until 2027-05-10, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 6,619 miles/year, suggesting light use.
  • No major structural or recurring mechanical failures recorded in the MOT history.
