2007 Ford C-MAX 1.8L Petrol · YS57 ADO

The 2023‑04‑24 MOT at 89,491 miles resulted in a pass, yet the record shows recurring rear brake pad wear, tyres worn close to the legal limit, a slightly distorted front wheel and minor play in the anti‑roll bar linkage, indicating a maintenance trend that is deteriorating rather than stabilising. The mileage has risen from 47,797 miles in 2015 to 89,491 miles in 2023, an average of roughly 5,200 miles per year, which exceeds the low‑usage estimate for a 19‑year‑old vehicle and includes several gaps and duplicate tests at the same odometer reading, suggesting periods of heavier use followed by repair and re‑testing. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear brake pads for thickness, examine the front and rear tyres for uneven wear and tread depth, check the front wheels for distortion or cracks, assess the anti‑roll bar linkage and suspension bushes for play, verify the constant‑velocity joint boots for splits, and look for structural rust around the wheel arches and chassis, while also confirming that the engine management light functions and no underlying engine faults are concealed.
