2017 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · ML17 ACZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 16 May 2025 at 51,649 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,739 miles per year. Between 22 May 2023 and 16 May 2025, the odometer rose from 43,808 to 51,649 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular, light use rather than long periods of standing, which typically reduces the risk of seized brake calipers or perished rubber seals. The absence of any advisories or failures across the 2023, 2024, and 2025 tests is unusual for a car of this age. While the record is clean, a buyer should still manually inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, as low-mileage cars often suffer from age-related rubber degradation despite lack of wear. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion and verify the tyre date codes during a physical inspection. Because the MOT history shows no recorded defects, these consumable items may have been neglected if the previous owner relied solely on the low mileage to justify skipping replacements. Confirm the service history aligns with these clean tests to ensure oil changes occurred regardless of the low annual mileage.
