2019 Ford Galaxy 2.0L Diesel · PF19 NKS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear decline over the last three years. While the car passed its 2022 and 2023 tests without any defects, the three most recent inspections have flagged mechanical advisories. The most recent test in April 2026 at 48,443 miles identified both front and rear brake pads as wearing thin alongside a persistent oil leak, indicating that preventative maintenance has recently been neglected. At 48,443 miles over seven years, the Galaxy has averaged approximately 6,900 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for a family MPV. However, there is a notable jump in mileage between May 2023 (25,133 miles) and April 2024 (33,192 miles), where the vehicle covered over 8,000 miles in a single year. This increased use coincides with the emergence of wear-related defects in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system, as the history shows recurring issues with thin pads across both axles and a fluctuating rear service brake noted in 2025. The presence of an oil leak that has been mentioned for three consecutive years requires a professional assessment to determine if it is a minor seepage or a developing main and seal failure. Additionally, the 2024 advisory regarding uneven tyre wear on the front suggests potential alignment issues or suspension component fatigue that should be verified to avoid raises damage to new tyres.
