2017 Ford C-MAX 1.0L Petrol · SR17 ADU

This Ford C-Max presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 12 August 2025 at 51,139 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,682 miles per year. The accumulation has been remarkably steady, with the odometer moving from 30,944 miles in August 2021 to 51,139 miles by August 2025. This linear growth suggests regular, light use rather than long periods of stagnation, which typically reduces the risk of perished seals or seized brake calipers. Because the MOT history is devoid of any flagged defects, there are no specific recurring faults to monitor. The absence of advisories regarding brake disc corrosion, suspension bush wear, or tyre tread depth over five years is unusual and suggests a proactive approach to maintenance. A physical inspection should still focus on components that MOT testers may overlook during a standard check. Check for oil leaks around the engine seals and inspect the condition of the battery, as low-mileage vehicles can suffer from degraded electrical health. Verify the service history to ensure that oil changes were performed based on time intervals rather than just mileage, as old oil can cause internal sludge buildup even in low-use cars.
