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 11 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 78,090 miles. The high mileage and repeated wear items suggest significant upcoming maintenance costs.

The vehicle shows consistent high annual usage, averaging 15,918 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine high mileage.

Things to check

  • High mileage of 156,787 miles (Nov 2025) suggests significant wear and tear.
  • Recurring brake advisories (14 items) across 4 tests (Jun 2019, Nov 2024) indicate ongoing maintenance needs.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (5 items) across 2 tests (Nov 2021, Nov 2024) suggest a pattern of component wear.
  • Major emissions failure (Nov 2021) and windscreen damage (Nov 2021) highlight past issues.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until November 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent high annual mileage (15,918 mi/yr) suggests regular use, not prolonged storage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
  • All prior failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or next day.
