AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Ford has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 18,526 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated advisories for wear items suggest a reactive maintenance approach.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 6,987 miles/year, with no anomalies or suspicious drops, but recent annual usage has been very low (e.g., 2,819 miles between Sep 2023 and Oct 2024).
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Oct 2024): Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))
- 2024-10-03: Failed MOT due to DANGEROUS front tyre tread depth below 1.6mm.
- 2024-10-03: Failed MOT due to DANGEROUS offside front tyre tread depth below 1.6mm.
- 2024-10-03: Failed MOT due to DANGEROUS front brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-03-27, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 6,987 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
- All dangerous defects (tyres, brakes) were immediately rectified and passed subsequent MOTs.
- No recurring major structural or mechanical failures (e.g., engine, transmission) identified in MOT history.
