2019 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · CV69 CVB

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend despite its low usage. The most recent MOT conducted on 22 August 2025 at 20,342 miles identified a minor fault regarding thin front brake pads. This represents the only defect recorded in a three-year period, suggesting that while consumable items are reaching their service limit, the mechanical and structural components have consistently passed without significant failures. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,900 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 1,685 miles and August 2024 at 14,285 miles, the car covered 12,600 miles, indicating a slight increase in use compared to the earlier years where it sat nearly stationary. This low-mile pattern generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and suspension bushings, though frequent short-distance trips can sometimes lead to rubber-based components hardening or brake discs developing surface corrosion from not being worked down. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the braking system during a physical inspection, as the 2025 advisory indicates the pads require replacement. Given the low annual mileage, the tester should also check for seized calipers or pitting on the discs which often occurs when vehicles remain stationary for long periods. Additionally, inspecting the tyres for age-related cracking is vital, as rubber degrades faster than the tread wears down on low-mileage cars.
