AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2012 Ford has 17 MOT tests on record with a 76% pass rate and 11,286 miles. While many issues were resolved, the sheer volume of advisories and failures across critical systems warrants a thorough inspection.

The vehicle shows consistent annual usage, averaging 9,011 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low figures, indicating normal mileage for its age.

Things to check

  • Recurring exhaust emissions failures/advisories across 5 tests (Sep 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2024).
  • Persistent suspension component advisories (coil spring, CV boot, arm) in 4+ separate tests.
  • Recurring brake disc wear advisories in 4+ separate tests (Sep 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022).
  • Multiple light failures (Sep 2020, 2022) and lamp advisories (Sep 2019, 2024).

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2026-08-18, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage (9,011 mi/yr) for its age.
  • All past failures were immediately rectified, showing responsive ownership.
