2015 Ford Ecosport 1.5L Diesel · SF65 UPT

The 2015 Ford EcoSport presents a currently lapsed but recently valid MOT status, with the last test on 18 July 2025 at 123,070 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Maintenance trend across the available records stays stable, showing no advisories or mechanical faults across five tests. The single failure on 22 July 2023 at 111,235 miles listed no defects and was followed by a pass on the same date, indicating a procedural irregularity rather than a deterioration in condition. Mileage progression tracks moderate use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record shows 105,602 miles on 27 July 2022, rising to 111,235 miles by 22 July 2023, then 116,371 miles on 10 July 2024, and 123,070 miles on 18 July 2025. Annual increments average near 5,800 miles between 2022 and 2023, 5,136 miles to 2024, and 6,699 miles to 2025, all below the roughly 11,188 miles per year norm implied by age. The sparse five-entry history contains no gaps longer than twelve months and reveals consistent, light-to-average use with no rapid accumulation. No recurring faults appear in the DVSA data, so the tester never flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across the timeline. Previous owners appear to have kept the vehicle to a basic pass standard with no advisories noted, suggesting routine maintenance rather than deferred care. At 123,070 miles the buyer should still inspect in person for worn suspension components, brake disc wear, and structural rust beneath sills and subframes, as high-mileage Ford chassis often develop unseen corrosion not captured in a clean MOT. A pre-purchase inspection should include a road test to detect any subtle drivetrain vibration or steering wander not recorded in the tests. Given the certificate expired on 18 July 2026, the new owner must book a fresh MOT before road use. The evidence points to a structurally sound example with stable upkeep, though physical verification remains prudent.
