2004 Ford Lexington 6.0L Diesel · CU05 LYF

The 2004 Ford Lexington presents as roadworthy following a pass at 32,723 miles on 8 July 2025, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across its recent history. The most recent test came one day after a failure on 7 July 2025 at the same mileage, though the DVSA record lists no defects for either entry. This suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle cleared the following day with a clean sheet. Recorded mileage stands at 32,723 against an age of around 22 years, equating to roughly 1,487 miles per year. The car moved from 29,796 miles at the 19 November 2021 test to 29,890 by 2 November 2022, then 30,009 on 2 October 2023, before reaching 32,723 by July 2025. That is a gentle annual accumulation with a modest 2,714-mile rise over the final two years. No rapid accumulation or neglected gaps appear; the sparse, clean record implies light use and a keeper who presented the car for timed tests without recorded advisories. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, given the low mileage and likely periods of standing that accelerate perished rubbers and surface corrosion. The MOT data flags no structural integrity issues, exhaust emissions failures, or recurring mechanical defects across the five entries. Verify the 7 July 2025 failure reason with DVSA, as a no-defect fail is unusual and may mask a documentation omission. Otherwise, the Lexington's history shows no worsening pattern and no consumable neglect such as tyre tread or wiper blade flags across the record.
