2015 Ford Ecosport 1.5L Diesel · LT65 AAF

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2025-09-26 at 75,847 miles, with no defects recorded. This suggests a stable maintenance trend over the past 12 months, as prior tests in 2024 and 2023 also showed no issues. However, the 2024-08-30 entry lists both a passed and failed test at the same mileage, which may indicate a data inconsistency. Despite this, the absence of recorded defects in the latest test implies the car meets current roadworthiness standards, though the long gap since the last inspection (10 months) could mask minor developments. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 11-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,895 miles annually. From 2022-09-08 (37,676 miles) to 2025-09-26 (75,847 miles), the car accumulated 38,171 miles over 34 months, reflecting steady but not excessive wear. Notable gaps exist between tests, such as the 12-month interval between 2023-08-31 (50,867 miles) and 2024-08-30 (67,807 miles), which may indicate periods of reduced use or delayed maintenance. The lack of recurring defects in the record suggests no systemic mechanical failures, though the failed 2024 test (unspecified) warrants scrutiny. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension components, particularly the rear coil springs and bushings, given the age of the vehicle. The absence of brake-related defects in the MOT history does not preclude wear in calipers or discs, which may require closer examination. Corrosion risks, especially in the underbody or exhaust system, should be checked, as these often develop over a decade of use. The 2024 failed test, though unexplained in the record, highlights the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the car’s mechanical integrity.
