AI verdict AVOID 31/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2010 Ford has 21 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 25,463 miles. The vehicle's extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 3-star Euro NCAP safety rating, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 4,370 miles per year, with suspiciously low usage recorded before Feb 2024 (411 mi/yr equivalent) and Feb 2026 (418 mi/yr equivalent).

Things to check

  • 2010 Ford with 3-star Euro NCAP safety rating — below average safety.
  • 7 MOT failures and 4 major failures recorded across 15 tests.
  • Recurring suspension arm corrosion (ADVISORY Feb 2026) — ongoing safety concern.
  • Recurring tyre damage (ADVISORY Feb 2026) — indicates chronic neglect.

Working in its favour

  • MOT valid until March 2027 — no immediate retesting required.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent test (Feb 2026).
  • Consistent mileage trajectory despite low annual usage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
