2014 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · YR64 ACJ

The 2014 Ford C-Max presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, with the most recent pass on 12 December 2025 at 90,001 miles confirming a stable and reliable mechanical condition. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories across the last five consecutive annual inspections indicates a disciplined approach to maintenance and proactive repair by previous owners. This record suggests the vehicle has been kept to a high standard, avoiding the common pitfalls of deferred maintenance often seen in vehicles of this age. The vehicle has covered 90,001 miles over its twelve-year lifespan, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per annum. This consistent usage pattern, evidenced by the steady accumulation of roughly 9,000 to 10,000 miles between each annual test from 2021 through 2025, implies the car has been used regularly rather than left standing for extended periods. Such usage is generally preferable for engine health and the longevity of rubber seals, hoses, and battery components, as it prevents the degradation associated with long-term inactivity. Since the MOT record contains no historical advisories, you should focus your physical inspection on components that typically reach their service limit at this mileage. Prioritise a thorough check of the suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs, as these parts often show signs of wear even when they pass a standard test. Inspect the brake discs and pads for uneven wear patterns or surface corrosion that may not have triggered a failure but could require attention in the near future. While the MOT history is exemplary, verifying the timing belt replacement interval remains essential, as this component is not covered by the MOT test and represents a significant mechanical risk if neglected at this age and mileage.
