2016 Ford Ecosport 1.0L Petrol · NV65 SYA

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 18 February 2026 at 80,467 miles. The maintenance trend indicates a stable pattern where the vehicle consistently meets minimum standards despite minor initial failures. In both February 2025 and February 2026, the car failed the initial presentation but passed upon re-test within two days. This suggests that the previous owner is proactive in rectifying defects once flagged by the tester, rather than allowing mechanical or structural issues to persist. The mileage profile is consistent with typical annual usage for this age, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Between the January 2024 test at 49,117 miles and the February 2025 test at 65,180 miles, the vehicle covered 16,063 miles in just thirteen months. Another 15,287 miles were recorded between February 2025 and February 2026. This steady accumulation suggests the car is used regularly, which generally helps prevent the degradation of seals and brake components that often occurs with long periods of standing. While the most recent records show no defects or advisories, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of common wear points for an EcoSport of this mileage. Focus on the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of tearing or cracking, which often degrade around the 80,000-mile mark. Check the brake discs for uneven wear or binding calipers, as the previous re-tests may have involved minor adjustments or component replacements. Additionally, examine the chassis for surface corrosion to ensure the structural integrity remains sound.
