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

This 2011 Ford has 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 14,705 miles. While mileage is low, the repeated advisories and failures point to a vehicle requiring significant ongoing maintenance.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,335 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Nov 2024): Offside Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
  • Dangerous brake failure on 2014-07-21 (14,705 mi) — all four wheels had pads <1.5mm.
  • Recurring tyre advisories across 8 tests (2016, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025) — persistent wear.
  • Dangerous tyre defect on 2016-05-18 (16,476 mi) — offside rear tyre had small tears.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-11-17, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,335 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
  • All past failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or subsequent day.
