AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This 2018 Ford EcoSport presents a clean and stable roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT in November 2025 at 72,237 miles passed with no defects, and the preceding four tests also show no advisory or failure items. The maintenance trend is clearly positive, with no recurring faults or escalating issues across the three-year history. The single failure in November 2023 was rectified the same day and carried no recorded defects, suggesting a minor, quickly corrected problem. The mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for the vehicle’s age. The annual average of roughly 9,030 miles aligns with normal UK usage. Mileage increments between tests are steady: 12,589 miles from December 2022 to November 2023, 13,581 miles to December 2024, and 10,215 miles to November 2025. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden high-mileage spikes that would indicate irregular use or prolonged standing. Given the unblemished test history, a buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection. At eight years old and over 72,000 miles, suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components are nearing typical replacement intervals. Check for corrosion on subframes and brake pipes, as Ford models of this era can develop surface rust. Tyre condition and brake disc wear are also prudent to verify, even though no previous tester flagged them. Overall, the MOT record suggests a well-cared-for vehicle with no hidden structural or mechanical concerns.
