FORD C-MAX2014 · 1.0L Petrol

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT record, with five consecutive passes and not a single advisory or defect recorded across any test. The most recent examination in January 2026 at 44,387 miles confirms the car is currently roadworthy with no flagged concerns. The maintenance trend is stable and, based on the available data, appears to be improving or at least consistently well-managed, as no recurring issues have emerged over the five-year period. The mileage pattern is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,700 miles per year. The recorded increments are steady and logical: the car covered approximately 6,000 miles between January 2021 and January 2022, then roughly 5,700 miles in the following year, and a smaller 3,355 miles between February 2023 and December 2024. This suggests consistent but light use, likely short commutes or occasional driving, with no evidence of prolonged standing or rapid accumulation that would indicate heavy commercial or motorway work. Given the absence of any recorded defects or advisories, a buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection, focusing on components that degrade with age rather than mileage. Check the condition of rubber suspension bushes, anti-roll bar links, and exhaust mounts for cracking or perishing. Brake discs and pads may show surface corrosion from infrequent use, and the handbrake mechanism should be tested for free operation. Also examine the underside for any corrosion on subframes or brake pipes, as these issues often go unreported until they become structural. A full service history check is advisable to confirm that fluids, belts, and spark plugs have been changed on a time-based schedule, not just mileage.
