2013 FORD C-MAX1.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend following a minor setback. The most recent test conducted in November 2025 at 43,148 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure was noted in December 2023, the immediate pass on the same day suggests that the owner was proactive in addressing identified faults rather than allowing them to persist. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,300 miles per year. Between December 2022 and November 2025, the car covered only 6,613 miles, confirming a history of light use rather than high-frequency long-distance commuting. This low-mileage status typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though such infrequent use can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based parts or the seizing of brake components if the vehicle is not driven regularly enough to keep them clean and lubricated. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age-related decay rather than mileage. Inspect the tyres for cracking on the sidewalls and check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs during periods of standing. Given the vehicle's age, examine the suspension bushes for early signs of perished rubber and check the structural integrity of the sills and wheel arches for emerging rust. The clean records from the last three tests suggest the vehicle has been well-kept despite its low time on the road.
