The 2026‑03‑25 MOT at 43,087 miles confirms the 2018 Ford EcoSport is roadworthy, though the repeated tyre defects reveal a stable maintenance trend that has not addressed perishing rubber. The vehicle passed all mechanical checks except for the tyre condition, which remains a concern. Mileage has climbed from 25,187 miles in March 2023 to 43,087 miles in March 2026, averaging about 5,400 miles annually, with no extended periods of inactivity evident in the record. The 2025 failure and subsequent pass show minor remedial work but the tyre issue persisted. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or corrosion, test the rear brake calipers for binding, examine the off‑side and near‑side rear tyres for perishing, verify the steering rack gaiter condition, and confirm the washer fluid system operates correctly, while also checking for structural rust on the chassis and wheel arches.
