Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available data. The most recent MOT on 10 September 2025 at 86,401 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting the car has been maintained to a standard that satisfies DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a nine year old vehicle. Between 13 September 2023 and 10 September 2025, the odometer rose from 59,557 to 86,401 miles. This represents an average annual increase of approximately 13,400 miles over the last two years, which is higher than the overall lifetime average of 9,600 miles per year. This recent uptick in usage suggests the car has been driven more frequently in recent months. The absence of advisories or failures across the 2023, 2024, and 2025 tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. Usually, a car with 86,000 miles would show some wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, or tyre tread. The lack of recorded defects suggests either a very rigorous preventative maintenance schedule or a tester who has been lenient with minor wear items. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common Ford EcoSport weak points that may not have been flagged. Check for corrosion on the rear subframe and inspect the condition of the brake pads and discs. Given the recent increase in annual mileage, verify the service history to ensure the oil and filters were changed in line with the increased usage to prevent premature engine wear.
