This 2018 Ford has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 29,576 miles. The repeated brake wear and immediate retest after failure suggest a reactive maintenance approach.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,847 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2023-09-18 after ADVISORY on 2022-09-09 indicates reactive maintenance.
- Recurring tyre advisories (2022-09-09) and immediate failure (2023-09-18) suggest a pattern of wear.
- Multiple brake advisories (2022-09-09, 2023-09-18) escalating to dangerous failure points to a systemic issue.
- The 2023-09-18 DANGEROUS brake failure was immediately rectified, but the underlying wear pattern is a concern.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-05, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage (8,847 mi/yr) aligns with UK average.
- No major structural or engine failures recorded in the MOT history.
- Immediate retest passes after failures show issues were addressed.
