Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers seeking a low-mil
The most critical point for negotiation is the recent May 2026 MOT failure. The presence of 'pitted' brake discs and parking brake inefficiency often suggests a vehicle that has spent significant periods of time stationary. Confirm whether the discs were fully replaced or simply refurbished to pass the test.
Check the service history for consistent oil changes, as the 5.0L V8 engine requires strict adherence to maintenance schedules. Given the 2024 advisory regarding a worn nearside rear suspension bush, verify if this component has been replaced, as it was noted as not yet causing excessive movement at the time.
Running costs for this vehicle will be high due to the 5038cc engine displacement. Fuel consumption will be significant, and the insurance group for a high-performance V8 is typically elevated.
Tax will be based on the vehicle's CO2 emissions under the Euro 6 AG standard. Maintenance costs for the Mustang are generally moderate, though high-performance tyres and brake components are more expensive than those for standard saloons.
Carefully inspect the rear brake discs for any remaining signs of pitting or corrosion, as these were the primary cause of the May 2026 MOT failure. Ensure the parking brake engages firmly and holds the vehicle on an incline.
Check the nearside rear lower suspension arm for any play or deterioration, referencing the July 2024 advisory. Additionally, inspect the rear tyres for any signs of cracking or perishing, as this was previously flagged in the 2024 MOT record.
This black 2019 Ford Mustang has recorded 35,031 miles as of May 2026. Its MOT history consists of four passes and one failure in May 2026, which was related to parking brake efficiency and pitted rear brake discs. The vehicle's annual mileage is slightly higher than the model average of 3,970 miles.
The Mustang shows a respectable average MOT pass rate of 86.8% across 14,136 vehicles, with common failures typically limited to tyres and lighting.
