2016 Ford Mustang 5.0L Petrol · HS16 RKX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 at 52,531 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory following a mechanical failure in 2023. While the latest test is clean, the history indicates that specific mechanical and wear issues had been addressed previously to keep the vehicle meeting minimum safety standards. At ten years old with 52,531 miles, this Mustang reflects low annual usage, averaging approximately 5,250 miles per year. The usage pattern appears consistent across the record, with roughly 8,200 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 7,700 miles between 2024 and 2025. This low mileage often suggests less wear on drivetrain components but can lead to accelerated degradation of rubber components if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods. A buyer should focus their inspection on the front suspension and geometry due to recurring uneven tyre wear. Tests in 2022 and 2024 both flagged front tyres as worn on the inner edges or near the legal limit, suggesting a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension bushings. The 2023 failure for an excessively worn nearside front suspension arm ball joint confirms that the front-end components are prone to wear. A physical inspection should verify that the ball joints were replaced correctly and that the wheel alignment is currently set to prevent premature replacement of new tyres.
