2019 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · KF19 HDX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in November 2025 at 14,816 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the latest result introduced a minor defect regarding the perishing of all four tyres. While the vehicle passed without defects in several previous tests, the emergence of rubber degradation suggests that the low-mileage usage has led to age-related material failure rather than mechanical wear. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,117 miles per year. There is a notable usage gap between April 2023 and November 2024, where the car covered only 2,481 miles in over sixteen months. This low-use pattern often results in minimal wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, but it increases the risk of components seizing. The failure in January 2024 due to insufficient washer fluid was a minor operational oversight that was rectified immediately for the successful re-test that same day. A buyer should prioritize an inspection of the tyres, as the November 2025 test flagged cracking and perishing across the set. Low-mile vehicles frequently suffer from dry rot regardless of tread depth, which compromises structural integrity at higher speeds. You should also examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as long periods of inactivity can cause the pads to bond to the rotors. Check the chassis and suspension bushes for early signs of cracking, as vehicles that rarely driven regularly often accumulate moisture in hidden areas.
