2013 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Petrol · SG63 AAO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a consistent pattern of age-related degradation rather than mechanical wear from use. The latest inspection in May 2026 at 26,084 miles resulted in advisories for structural corrosion on the rear suspension and the front sub-frame. While these components are not yet considered seriously weakened, the presence of rust indicates the beginning of a process that requires monitoring to prevent future failure. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old vehicle, totalling 26,084 miles. This represents an average usage of approximately 2,000 miles per year, which explains the lack of heavy drivetrain wear but correlates directly with the issues noted in the records. The gaps between tests are consistent, with roughly 1,100 miles covered between annually, suggesting the car sits for long periods, which often leads to the chemical breakdown of rubber components. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the tyres, as the history shows a recurring failure for cracking and perishing across all four corners over last three years. This is a classic symptom of low-mileage de-use, where the rubber dries out irrespective of tread depth. Additionally, the buyer should verify the extent of the sub-frame and rear suspension corrosion to ensure the surface rust has not progressed into structural thinning, as these are the most significant long-term risks identified in the data.
