2016 Ford Galaxy 2.0L Petrol · RW02 AAA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in October 2025 at 79,848 miles resulted in a pass, though it introduced an advisory for rear tyres starting to perish. This indicates that while the vehicle remains legally roadworthy, it is entering a phase requiring consumable replacement. The trend suggests a proactive ownership style as no major mechanical or structural failures have triggered a fail. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. Between October 2021 at 44,644 miles and October 2025 at 79,848 miles, the car covered roughly 35,000 miles, reflecting steady usage rather than long periods of stagnation. This low annual mileage is generally beneficial for components like rubber suspension bushes and seals which can degrade when sitting. The lack of defects recorded between 2021 and 2023 suggests the vehicle was exceptionally well-maintained during those intervals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the rear tyres, as the 2025 advisory suggests they are nearing the end of their functional life regardless of tread depth. The 2024 failure regarding the offside rear position lamp was a minor electrical issue that was rectified, but checking the full lighting cluster remains standard practice. Since no structural corrosion or brake binding issues were flagged in the history, the inspection of the underbody for any signs of surface rust is still advisable for a Galaxy of this age to ensure the structural integrity remains sound beyond what the records suggest.
