Ford Roller Team (2017)
2017 Ford Roller Team
CarHunch analysed 154 real MOT records for the 2017 Ford Roller Team. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2017 Ford Roller Team is a strong performer, with a 91.9% first-time pass rate that sits well above the UK average of 80%, and only 3.9% of vehicles ever recorded a dangerous defect—a low safety concern. Petrol and diesel breakdowns aren't available for this model, so reliability is broadly consistent across the fuel type.
These vehicles average just 23,448 miles at test, which is typical for a six-year-old car, and owners encounter roughly 0.62 failures and 2.7 advisories per MOT—suggesting they're generally well-maintained and free from major wear. Before buying, ask the seller for full service history and check for any pattern in those advisories, as consistent minor issues can mount up.
What to check before buying a 2017 Ford Roller Team
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
