This 2002 Ford has 12 MOT tests on record with a 92% pass rate and 62,178 miles. The 'just passed MOT' tactic is evident, with a dangerous seatbelt corrosion advisory and a recurring exhaust advisory.
Mileage is consistent, averaging 9,157 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, though a 1-year period (2010-2011) shows unusually low annual usage.
Things to check
- Dangerous offside seatbelt anchorage corrosion advisory (Jun 2015) — requires immediate repair.
- The 24-year-old vehicle with consistent high mileage (123,532 miles) will incur significant future maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Consistent high annual mileage (9,157 miles/year) suggests regular use and maintenance.
- No dangerous defects recorded on the MOT history, despite the recent advisory.
- The vehicle has a long, consistent MOT pass history with no major recurring failures.
- The 3-star Euro NCAP safety rating for a 2002 vehicle is above average for its era.
