2016 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · DC16 AYV

The 2016 Ford EcoSport presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 November 2025 at 39,928 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the full available history. The mileage pattern shows consistently low use for a ten-year-old vehicle. From the 29 October 2021 test at 34,490 miles to the 12 November 2025 test at 39,928 miles, the car covered only 5,438 miles over four years, averaging roughly 1,360 miles per year. Annual increments stayed tight: 1,489 miles between 2022 and 2023, 1,226 between 2023 and 2024, and 1,269 between 2024 and 2025. The DVSA record contains no gaps, failures, or advisories, so the data is sparse on faults but clean throughout. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. Low mileage paired with the clean MOT record offers no evidence of neglected consumables, yet standing time can allow corrosion to develop on brake discs, suspension bushes, and underbody structures unseen in a pass result. The tester logged no advisories on coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity, but these components warrant physical checks for rust and perishing rubber. Given the absence of any flagged defects, previous owners appear to have kept the vehicle lightly used and compliant with test standards. The stable record implies basic upkeep was maintained, though the low annual distance means mechanical wear from use is minimal while age-related deterioration remains the principal risk.
