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

This 2014 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 14,300 miles. The vehicle's history is marred by unresolved issues, including a dangerous head gasket failure and a fractured coil spring.

The vehicle shows normal usage with 8,266 miles/year, consistent with UK average, and no suspicious drops or spikes in its 101,010-mile history.

Things to check

  • Dangerous Head Gasket Failure: Turbo fail and blown head gasket (2014–present) — critical engine integrity.
  • Recurring Major Suspension Failure: Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (Mar 2024) — structural integrity.
  • Recurring Major Lighting Failure: Headlamp not working on dipped beam (Mar 2024) — safety and visibility.
  • Recurring Major Lighting Failure: Offside Rear Rear fog lamp lens defective (Feb 2022) — safety and visibility.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
