2018 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · MX68 ODA

The 2025‑04‑17 MOT at 49,969 miles confirms the Ford EcoSport remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded. The test outcome matches the three earlier passes, indicating a stable maintenance trend and no evidence of worsening mechanical conditions. At eight years old, the vehicle has accumulated roughly 6,250 miles per year, a rate typical for its age. Mileage rose from 14,191 miles in September 2021 to 15,840 miles in April 2022, then accelerated to 23,813 miles by April 2023, 37,079 miles by April 2024, and finally 49,969 miles in April 2025. The interval between the April 2024 and April 2025 tests spans fifteen months, exceeding the standard annual MOT requirement, yet the result remained defect‑free. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the brake calipers and discs for binding or corrosion, and check the exhaust system and structural panels for rust that could compromise integrity. Although the MOT record shows no reported faults, visual assessment of tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and fluid levels remains essential, as these items are not captured in the test results. The clean history and consistent mileage suggest the previous owners maintained the vehicle adequately, but a thorough physical inspection is still required to verify the condition of wear items and any hidden structural damage before purchase.
