xpath selenium multi/and operators

Could anybody help how to solve this dilemma

I have this code:
  <div>
    <a href="/cars/102392-2">Link</a>
    <span class="make">Chevrolet</span><br>
    <span class="year">1956</span><br>
    <span class="price">$20,000</span><br>
  </div>

  <div>
    <a href="/cars/152933-11">Link</a>
    <span class="make">Ford</span><br>
    <span class="year">1958</span><br>
    <span class="price">$21,000</span><br>
  </div>

I need get the link for example Fords with the year greater then 1950.

Presently, I am using following xpath: 

//*[text()='Ford' and .//text()>'1950']//parent::a

And this doesn't work! Have you any idea ?

This is one possible XPath :

//div[span/text()='Ford' and span/text()>1950]/a

Basically the XPath check if div has child span with text equals 'Ford' and another child span with value greater than 1950. Then from such div that match the two criteria above, return child a element.

demo

Better yet, only check span with class 'make' for manufacturer and span with class 'year' for manufacturing year :

//div[span[@class='make']='Ford' and span[@class='year']>1950]/a

You can write a generic method to get the required links, as shown below:

public static List<WebElement> getLinks(String linkText, int year) {
    List<WebElement> links = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//a[text()='" + linkText + "']/following-sibling::span[1]"));
        List<WebElement> linksGreaterThanRequiredYear = new ArrayList<WebElement>();
        for (WebElement link : links) {
            if (Integer.parseInt(link.getText()) > year)
                linksGreaterThanRequiredYear.add(link);
        }
        return linksGreaterThanRequiredYear;
}

Hence, if you want to get the Fords with year greater than 1950, you can call above method in following way:

 List<WebElement> fordsWithYearGreaterThan1950 = getLinks("Ford", 1950);

Above method can be further enhanced to include less than criteria as well. Let me know, if you have any further queries.
