2013 Ford C-MAX 1.0L Petrol · BN13 ABF

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 13 November 2025 at 46,508 miles showed no defects or advisories. This reflects a stable maintenance trend over the last four years, indicating that the vehicle has been kept to a functional standard without recurring mechanical or structural failures being flagged by the DVSA tester. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per year. Between March 2022 and March 2024, the car covered only 5,158 miles, suggesting periods of limited use. A more recent increase in usage occurred between December 2024 and November 2025, where the vehicle clocked 6,805 miles in eleven months. While this low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it often increases the risk of rubber-based parts degrading or seizing due to inactivity. Given the lack of recorded advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components associated with low-mileage storage. The buyer should check for brake caliper seizing, perished suspension bushes, and dry-rotted tyre sidewalls which may not always trigger an MOT failure. The structural integrity should also be examined for early signs of surface corrosion, as low-use vehicles can sometimes trap moisture in hidden sills. The record suggests a vehicle that has been well-looked after, but the age of the components remains the primary factor for potential future maintenance.
