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

This 2013 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 17,066 miles. The vehicle's history shows consistent but low usage, which is positive.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,949 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 17,066 miles recorded over 13 years.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories across 6 separate MOT tests (e.g., Jul 2022, Jul 2023, Jul 2024) indicate a persistent wear item.
  • A previous head gasket failure (not detailed in MOT) is a major concern for a 2013 Ford, suggesting potential underlying engine issues.
  • The 2017-07-21 MOT advisory for 'Nearside Rear Shock absorber has a light misting of oil' is a recurring issue, suggesting ongoing suspension wear.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2026-07-26 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent low annual mileage (4,949 miles/yr) suggests light use and potential lower wear on components.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
