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

This 2006 Ford has 21 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 11,232 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with its extremely low usage and unexplained history, makes it an extremely high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage averaging 2,511 miles/year, with a significant 20-year gap in MOT records and suspiciously low readings before Sep 2021 (64 mi/yr equivalent).

Things to check

  • MOT history shows a 20-year gap (Jan 2006 to Sep 2018) with no recorded tests.
  • Mileage is extremely low, averaging 2,511 miles/year, with suspiciously low readings before Sep 2021 (64 mi/yr equivalent).
  • Recurring failures/advisories for tyres (5 advisories) and brakes (6 advisories) across multiple tests.
  • The Oct 2023 MOT pass followed a failure, with advisories still present for tyres and brake hose.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
  • No specific green flags identified from the MOT history or vehicle data.
