2021 Ford Tourneo Connect 1.5L Diesel · WF71 GFK

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently assessed as passable , but the maintenance record indicates a worsening trend in braking and suspension components, particularly concerning the rear suspension. The MOT history shows a clear gap in the most recent test, with the last valid check occurring on 2025-07-24 at 12,815 miles. This test was conducted approximately two months prior to today, 2026-06-18, suggesting a significant lapse in the last formal MOT. The vehicle has not yet passed the current date's test, which is a critical indicator of potential structural integrity issues. The mileage profile reflects a pattern of rapid accumulation, averaging roughly 2,563 miles per year, which is consistent with the vehicle's age of approximately five years. While this is lower than typical for a used car, the data suggests that the vehicle may have been driven less frequently or maintained with less attention to specific wear points than expected. To assess the mechanical risks, the tester flagged binding rear brakes and a perishing rear outer tyre. Given the recent MOT failure on the same date, these faults are likely exacerbated by the vehicle's lack of recent servicing. The binding condition on the rear brakes is a serious structural risk that could lead to a failure, whereas the perishing rear outer tyre is a consumable wear item that is generally less critical than the braking system.
