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 64% pass rate and 9,415 miles. The extremely low mileage of 9,415 miles over 12 years, combined with a 2.0L EcoBoost engine, raises significant concerns about its true condition and potential for major mechanical issues.

The vehicle shows an extremely low mileage of 9,415 miles over 12 years, averaging only 3,178 miles per year, which is highly suspicious for a 2014 vehicle and suggests potential odometer fraud or long periods of inactivity.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 9,415 miles over 12 years (Jan 2014) — a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
  • Recurring tyre failures: 7 advisories and 2 DANGEROUS defects (Jan 2022) — indicates chronic neglect of critical safety components.
  • Recurring brake disc failures: 3 advisories and 2 major failures (Apr 2019) — points to a systemic lack of maintenance.
  • Recurring suspension arm failures: 3 advisories and 1 major failure (Apr 2025) — suggests underlying structural or alignment issues.

Working in its favour

  • Current MOT valid until 2027-05-05, indicating it is roadworthy for the next two years.
  • No recent MOT failures or major defects recorded in the last 12 months of tests.
  • The vehicle has consistently passed retests after failures, showing owners addressed issues promptly.
  • The 2.0L EcoBoost engine, despite its reputation, has a 5.4L variant known for durability (community report).
