1995 Ford Escort 2.0L Petrol · M141 NAB

This 1995 Ford Escort maintains a clean roadworthiness record, with the most recent test conducted on 16 March 2026 resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. The vehicle has demonstrated a stable and positive maintenance trend over the last four years, successfully clearing every annual inspection without a single advisory or failure. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been subjected to diligent oversight and regular mechanical attention during its recent history. The recorded mileage of 62,643 over approximately 31 years averages out to a very low annual usage rate of roughly 2,000 miles. The MOT history shows a steady, light accumulation of miles between June 2022 and March 2026, indicating that the car has remained in active use rather than sitting stagnant for extended periods. While low mileage often preserves drivetrain components, it can sometimes mask issues related to rubber degradation or fluid stagnation if the vehicle was stored improperly in earlier years. Given the age of this platform, a physical inspection must prioritise the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as Ford Escorts of this vintage are highly susceptible to corrosion. Even with a clean MOT history, surface rust can quickly compromise structural members if not treated. You should specifically inspect the suspension mounting points, floor pans, and wheel arches for any signs of previous welding or hidden rot. Check the condition of all rubber hoses, bushes, and gaiters, as these components perish with age regardless of the low mileage covered. Verify that the braking system operates smoothly and shows no signs of seizing, which is a common risk for vehicles that see infrequent use.
