Our Verdict
Proceed with confidence, but ensure a re
When viewing this 1.0L EcoSport, check the service history to see if the brake pad replacements noted in the 2025 MOT failure were accompanied by a full brake inspection. Given the 2025 failure for worn tyres on both front axles, ask if the wheel alignment was checked at that time to ensure even tread wear moving forward.
Negotiate based on the upcoming service interval. While the 2026 MOT was clean, the mileage is approaching the 40,000-mile mark, which often coincides with more significant maintenance requirements for Ford petrol engines. Ensure there is evidence of oil changes to support the small-capacity 998cc engine.
The 998cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing this vehicle in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to larger SUVs. Fuel economy should be reasonable for a compact crossover, though driving style will heavily influence real-world MPG.
Typical maintenance for this model involves standard consumables like tyres and brakes, which have appeared in the MOT history. Annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and a budget for maintenance, are estimated to be moderate for this class of vehicle.
Pay close attention to the front tyres and braking components. The 2025 MOT failure specifically cited both front tyres being worn close to the legal limit and front brake pads being less than 1.5mm thick. Verify that these components have been replaced with quality parts.
Additionally, check the headlamp functionality. The 2025 test recorded a failure for the nearside front dipped beam; while this was resolved for the pass, it is worth testing both dipped and main beams during your inspection to ensure electrical reliability.
This 2019 Ford EcoSport, finished in Red, has covered 38,970 miles since its first registration in August 2019. The MOT history shows a pattern of wear-and-tear items, such as tyres and brake pads, being addressed to secure passes. The most recent test in August 2026 recorded no defects, indicating the vehicle was in a compliant state at that time.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Ford EcoSport to provide a specific trend analysis.
