This 2013 Ford has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 12,823 miles. The vehicle's past suspension failure and persistent tyre wear also indicate potential ongoing maintenance needs.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 44,215 miles over 13 years (3,496 miles/year), which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year, raising odometer integrity concerns.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 44,215 mi over 13 years (Jan 2013).
- Recurring tyre advisories across 10 tests (Mar 2019, Aug 2024) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring brake advisories across 6 tests (Mar 2022, Aug 2024) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
- Major suspension failure (NSF Lower Suspension arm ball joint) on 2019-03-13.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 31 August 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent low annual mileage (3,496 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
- No recurring major failures in recent years (since 2023), indicating current stability.
- Immediate retests after failures (e.g., 2019-03-13) show responsive owner action.
