2016 Ford Mustang 2.3L Petrol · AE16 AYP

The 2016 Ford Mustang passed its most recent MOT on 16 January 2023 at 41,596 miles with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness and a stable maintenance history. Earlier tests from 2016 to 2022 also showed passes with no defects, indicating a consistent condition over time. The mileage trajectory shows a low annual average of about 4,160 miles, well below the typical 10,000‑mile benchmark for a ten‑year‑old vehicle, suggesting light use or extended periods of inactivity. Mileage rose sharply from the initial 56‑mile registration test in March 2016 to 19,621 miles by December 2018, then increased more gradually to 37,338 miles in January 2022 and finally to 41,596 miles in January 2023, with no further tests since, meaning the current MOT is over three years old as of July 2026. A buyer should therefore focus on the recurring brake issues noted in the 2018 and 2019 records, inspecting the front inner and offside rear discs for continued scoring, pitting or reduced thickness, and checking the associated calipers for binding. Examination of the suspension bushes, coil springs and rear brake components is advisable, as is a visual assessment of the chassis for structural rust, especially around wheel arches and the subframe. Tyre condition, particularly edge wear observed in 2021, and the integrity of the exhaust system should also be verified before purchase.
