AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2010 Ford has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 19,787 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, coupled with a 3-star Euro NCAP safety rating, makes this a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 4,756 miles/year, with a significant 16-month period of only 55 miles between March 2025 and March 2026.
Things to check
- Five major MOT failures across suspension, lights, and emissions (Mar 2022, Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025, Mar 2026).
- Twelve recurring tyre advisories (Feb 2019, Mar 2020, Mar 2022, Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025, Mar 2026) indicate chronic wear.
- Extremely low mileage for a 16-year-old vehicle (4,756 miles/year) suggests minimal use or long periods of inactivity.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 3/5 stars (2017) is below average for a 2010 model, raising safety concerns.
Working in its favour
- Current valid MOT until March 2027, indicating it is roadworthy for the next year.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers in the provided data.
- The 1.2L engine is generally known for its durability and reliability, a positive for this model.
- The vehicle has a consistent MOT history, with all failures and advisories properly recorded and addressed.
