AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2013 Ford has 11 MOT tests on record with a 91% pass rate and 13,669 miles. The extremely low annual mileage since 2024 is a significant concern.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,507 miles/year, with a suspiciously low 329 miles recorded between Oct 2023 and Oct 2024.
Things to check
- Suspension arm ball joint failures on both nearside and offside (Oct 2021, Oct 2021) suggest a history of poor alignment or impact.
- Extremely low annual mileage (329 miles in 14 months) since Oct 2023 is a major red flag for potential long-term inactivity.
- The Oct 2024 MOT recorded only 329 miles, a significant drop from previous annual usage, warrants investigation.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- Valid MOT until October 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
- Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage suggests a single owner or careful use.
