2009 FORD FREDA2.0L Petrol

The Ford Freda last passed its MOT on 18 January 2022 at 127,873 miles with no defects recorded, confirming statutory roadworthiness at that date. Across the supplied history the mechanical trend is stable because no tester logged advisories or component failures across five examinations. Two earlier tests on 23 November 2021 and 13 November 2020 produced fails at 127,862 and 126,148 miles respectively, yet the records cite no defects. This pattern points to administrative or documentation causes rather than worsening mechanical condition. The odometer reads 127,873 miles against a 2009 build, equating to roughly 7,500 miles per year and matching typical use for the age. Mileage accumulation slowed sharply in the final recorded phase. The car travelled 3,279 miles between 22 May 2019 at 122,869 miles and 13 November 2020 at 126,148 miles, then only 1,714 miles to 23 November 2021, and a mere 11 miles before the January 2022 pass. Such low yearly totals suggest light running or extended storage. The sparse record leaves an 18-month gap unaccounted for between mid-2019 and late 2020. With no mechanical faults flagged in any test, the buyer faces no recorded red flags for suspension, brakes, or emissions. A 17-year-old vehicle that has likely stood for periods still demands a physical inspection of structural corrosion, suspension bushes, and brake calipers for binding. The unexplained fails warrant retrieval of the DVSA failure reasons to rule out hidden defects. Tyres and wiper blades will have aged irrespective of mileage, so assess rubber condition and check exhaust system for rust. The absence of advisories does not exempt the new owner from a thorough pre-purchase examination given the four and a half years elapsed since the last test.
