AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2015 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 19,404 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated advisories for suspension and tyres indicate ongoing wear and potential neglect.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,555 miles/year, with a notable spike of 21,794 miles between Aug 2024 and Sep 2025, but no anomalies detected.
Things to check
- Recurring brake system failures and advisories across 6 tests (Aug 2018, 2020, 2024, 2025).
- Major Engine/Oil failure on 2024-08-19, followed by a retest PASS on 2024-08-20.
- Recurring suspension advisories (Aug 2024, Sep 2025) and tyre advisories (Aug 2024, Sep 2025).
- The vehicle is currently on SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification) status.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-16, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 7,555 miles/year, no fraud detected.
- No DANGEROUS defects remain unresolved since the 2018-08-20 failure.
- Immediate retest passes after failures demonstrate owner's responsiveness to issues.
