2018 Ford Allied 2.0L Diesel · SF18 SRV

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent inspection on 19 September 2025 at 13,922 miles. The absence of advisories or failures in the last two consecutive tests indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a satisfactory standard, with no recurring mechanical defects currently compromising its operation. This clean record suggests that previous issues have been effectively addressed or that the vehicle has seen light enough usage to avoid premature component degradation. The recorded mileage of 13,922 miles over an eight-year lifespan averages approximately 1,740 miles per annum, confirming a pattern of very light usage. The MOT history remains consistent across its life, with no significant gaps in testing or erratic jumps in mileage that might suggest long periods of inactivity or odometer tampering. While low mileage often implies less wear on drivetrain components, prospective buyers should remain aware that vehicles left standing for extended durations can occasionally suffer from seized brake calipers, perished rubber seals, or internal corrosion within the fuel system. Inspecting the suspension and steering geometry is essential, as the 2022 and 2023 MOT tests flagged uneven tyre wear on the front axle. Although the most recent tests show no such issues, the previous wear patterns suggest the vehicle may have been prone to tracking misalignment or minor suspension bush fatigue. You should verify the condition of the front tyres for even tread depth and check for any play in the track rod ends or lower ball joints. Given the low annual mileage, a thorough visual inspection of the exhaust system and brake discs for surface corrosion is also recommended to ensure that the lack of frequent use has not led to premature component decay.
