  I did drive the car with no issue from Bristol to London as i was driving at about 60mph max 65 on M4. At the day of purchase he gave me a small test drive in a small street as he didnt have the Road Tax, he got the MOT done for me couple of days back, with no advisory. But in a week or so i felt steering shake so i brought the car to Ford Uxbridge and got it diagnosed, they found multiple things such as worn out arm bushes, buckled alloy, leakage turbo pipe are some of those.
