AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2007 Ford has 20 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 14,987 miles. The vehicle's age and pattern of neglect make it a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 53,707 miles over 19 years, with a critical anomaly of 9,440 miles/year between 2007 and 2011, and subsequent very low annual usage, indicating potential odometer issues.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Tyres worn close to legal limit (Oct 2018) — immediate safety concern.
- Recurring major failures: Brakes (2 failures, 5 advisories), Suspension (1 failure, 5 advisories), Steering (2 failures, 2 advisories).
- High mileage anomaly: 9,440 miles/year (2007-2011) — strongly suggests odometer fraud.
- Unresolved advisories: Oct 2025 test still shows coolant, brake disc, steering rack, and coil spring advisories.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recent MOT failures, suggesting current owner has addressed immediate issues.
- Consistent annual mileage since 2011, despite initial low usage.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off markers in the provided data.
