2019 Ford Galaxy 2.0L Diesel · EX68 ABC

The vehicle's most recent MOT test on 12th May 2026 at 136,815 miles passed, but it was flagged with a severely deteriorated offside front outer drive shaft joint constant velocity boot. This fault has been present since the 15th October 2025 test, suggesting a consistent issue with the drive shaft boot. The maintenance history shows a stable trend for critical components, though minor advisories like thin brake pads and insecure battery mounting have been recurring. The vehicle's roadworthiness is generally sound, but the drive shaft boot requires attention. The mileage pattern is unusually high for a 7-year-old vehicle, averaging 19,545 miles per year. The most recent test was conducted just 25 days after the previous one, indicating frequent use. There are no significant gaps in the MOT history, but the high mileage suggests accelerated wear on consumables like tyres and brake pads. The vehicle's drivetrain and suspension components have been subjected to more stress than typical, which may impact their long-term reliability. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the drive shaft boot and battery mounting. The offside front outer drive shaft joint constant velocity boot has been deteriorating over time, and its condition could affect the drivetrain's performance. The battery mounting has also been flagged as insecure, which could pose a safety risk if the battery were to fall. Additionally, the vehicle's high mileage suggests that consumables like tyres, brake pads, and suspension bushes may need replacement sooner than expected. A thorough inspection of these components is essential to assess their current condition and plan for future maintenance.
