2018 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · EO18 AEM

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 February 2026 at 27,876 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to February 2022, indicating a car that has been kept in a roadworthy state without the recurring mechanical failures often seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage is very low for an eight year old car, averaging roughly 3,484 miles per year. The accumulation has been steady and predictable, rising from 19,712 miles in February 2022 to 27,876 miles by February 2026. This low usage suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy urban wear or long-distance strain, though such low mileage can sometimes lead to secondary issues. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished rubber seals, flat spots on tyres, or moisture buildup in the exhaust system. Check for any signs of brake disc corrosion or binding calipers, as brakes that are rarely used heavily can seize over time. Verify the condition of the battery and fluid levels, as long periods of standing can shorten battery life and lead to oil sludge. While the DVSA records show no structural corrosion or suspension failures, a manual check of the suspension bushes and coil springs is advised to ensure the rubber has not perished due to age rather than wear.
