2019 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · EP19 OGY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend toward improving maintenance standards. The most recent inspection conducted on 20 October 2025 at 54,976 miles resulted in a pass with zero defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed and that the vehicle currently meets all DVSA requirements for safety and environmental standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per annum. There is a notable increase in usage between June 2023 and October 2024, where the car covered 11,860 miles in just sixteen months, compared to the much lower usage seen between 2022 and 2023. This shift in usage suggests a transition from light occasional use to more regular annual driving, which typically explains the wear noted on components during that mid-life period. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system. During the June 2023 test at 30,419 miles, the tester flagged thin front inner brake pads and worn brake discs. While the subsequent tests show these issues were rectified, a physical check should verify the current thickness of the pads and inspect the discs for any scoring or uneven wear patterns. Given the age-related wear, the buyer should also inspect the suspension bushings for signs of per cracking, as these are common points of failure on the EcoSport despite relatively low mileage.
