2006 Ford Fusion 1.4L Petrol · GU06 GFE

The 2006 Ford Fusion currently holds a valid roadworthiness pass from the 14 July 2025 test at 63,362 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, as every recorded pass and fail since 2023 shows a clean sheet with no advisories or faults raised. The duplicate failed entries on 14 July 2025 and 11 July 2023 at identical mileages to the passes suggest administrative rejections rather than mechanical defects, since the tester logged no defects on those dates. Annual mileage sits at roughly 3,168 miles per year against the vehicle's 20-year age, a low figure confirmed by the records. The odometer moved from 61,808 miles at the July 2023 test to 63,029 miles in July 2024, then 63,362 miles by July 2025. That equates to around 1,200 miles in the first year and just 333 miles in the second, indicating the car spent long periods stationary. Sparse, clean MOT data limits insight into wear patterns, but standing time raises familiar risks for rubber and fluid components. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as low-use vehicles often develop perished rubber and seized mechanisms despite passing emissions and structural checks. Examine brake discs for corrosion from disuse and verify the exhaust system has no internal rot. The absent advisories give no warning of impending wear, so a pre-purchase check remains sensible on a 20-year-old chassis. Given the clean record and minimal accumulation, previous keepers likely stored the car rather than neglected active maintenance, though the duplicate fail logs hint at loose test booking discipline. Confirm the 2025 pass remains live and inspect for structural rust beneath sills and subframes before committing.
