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

This 2011 Ford has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 22,835 miles. The history of overheating and timing chain issues for this model variant is a significant concern.

The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 5,736 miles per year, with a significant drop from 62,407 miles in Nov 2019 to 64,426 miles in Nov 2020, indicating periods of prolonged inactivity.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension arm advisories (2018, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023) indicate ongoing wear.
  • Unexplained low annual mileage (5,736 mi/yr) for a 15-year-old vehicle, with a 2-year gap of only 21 miles, is a major concern.
  • Multiple high-risk community-reported faults for the 2.0 EcoBoost engine variant (overheating, head gasket, timing chain) are a significant red flag for future reliability and safety.
  • The 2015-12-18 and 2015-12-18 MOT records are identical, suggesting a potential data entry error or a retest on the same day.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-17, indicating current roadworthiness and recent safety checks.
  • Consistent low mileage (22,835 miles in 15 years) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
  • No major recurring failures on critical systems like brakes or steering, only advisories.
  • Immediate retest passes after failures (e.g., Nov 2020, Nov 2025) show responsive owner repairs.
