2004 Ford Galaxy 1.9L Diesel · CF53 GNN

The most recent MOT on 10 March 2022, performed at 311,270 miles, recorded a Pass with no defects, indicating the vehicle met the statutory roadworthiness criteria at that time. The identical outcome at the 22 September 2021 test, also a Pass, demonstrates a stable maintenance pattern across the two recorded examinations. Across the 22‑year lifespan the odometer rose from 298,102 miles on 22 September 2021 to 311,270 miles on 10 March 2022, a gain of 13,168 miles in roughly six months. That rate exceeds the average of 14,149 miles per year calculated for the whole life, signalling periods of intensive use. No large mileage gaps appear in the record, suggesting continuous operation rather than prolonged storage. A prospective buyer should focus the in‑person inspection on wear‑related items that the MOT does not capture. Examine suspension bushes and coil springs for leakage or excessive play, and check brake discs and pads for thickness and scoring. Verify tyre tread depth and uniformity, and inspect the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks that could affect emissions compliance. A visual survey of the bodywork for structural rust, especially around wheel arches and under‑carriage, will reveal any hidden deterioration that high mileage can exacerbate.
