2013 Ford S-MAX 2.0L Diesel · GN13 ABF

The 2013 Ford S-MAX presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 February 2025 at 150,578 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes since at least 2021. Annual mileage has tracked close to the typical 11,583 miles per year for a vehicle of this age. The tester logged 101,920 miles in February 2021, rising to 113,728 by February 2022, 128,797 in February 2023, 141,810 in February 2024, and 150,578 in February 2025. The record shows no gaps, no rapid accumulation, and no advisories across five consecutive passes, which indicates consistent use and disciplined upkeep by previous keepers. Given the absence of flagged defects, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of consumable and age-related items that MOT tests may not deeply probe. At 13 years old and over 150,000 miles, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake disc thickness, and subframe corrosion warrant physical checks. The clean history implies no recurring mechanical faults, yet high mileage on the original drivetrain demands scrutiny of clutch wear, turbo condition, and engine mounts. The DVSA data alone supports a favourable verdict on structural integrity and emissions compliance. A pre-purchase examination should confirm tyre tread depth, wiper function, and underbody rust that a pass certificate does not itemise.
