2020 Ford Chausson 2.0L Diesel · AO70 BUP

The vehicle demonstrates a stable maintenance trend, with all four MOT tests from 2023 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent September 2025 test at 7,644 miles confirmed roadworthiness without issues, aligning with prior results. No recurring faults or escalating concerns are evident in the history, suggesting consistent upkeep. However, the extended gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests (12 months) and the low mileage of 7,644 miles for a 2020 model raise questions about usage patterns. The vehicle’s mileage of 7,644 miles over six years equates to approximately 1,274 miles annually, significantly below average. This could indicate infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect components like rubber seals, tyres, and battery health. The MOT records show no signs of wear-related failures, but the sparse data—three tests over 24 months—limits insight into long-term degradation. Notably, the 2023 test at 5,453 miles and the 2024 test at 6,734 miles reveal a 1,281-mile increase over 10 months, followed by a 644-mile rise in three months by 2025, suggesting irregular usage. A buyer should inspect for signs of inactivity, such as dry rot on tyres, corrosion in the underbody, or fluid leaks from stagnant components. While no structural or mechanical faults were recorded, the low mileage warrants checking the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for uneven wear. The absence of advisories on exhaust emissions or braking systems is positive, but a pre-purchase inspection should verify the battery’s condition and electrical systems, which may degrade during prolonged storage. The vehicle’s history reflects no critical issues, but its usage profile requires careful evaluation.
