2012 Ford Grand C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · AD12 CXP

The 2012 Ford Grand C-Max presents a stable roadworthiness status, as evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 2024-12-03 at 198,877 miles, which passed with no defects recorded. This outcome aligns with the preceding tests, where the vehicle consistently passed with no notable issues reported. The maintenance trend appears stable, with no indication of worsening conditions or recurring problems. The recorded mileage of 198,877 miles over 14 years translates to approximately 14,206 miles per year, which is high for its age. A notable mileage accumulation occurred between 2022-12-06 and 2023-11-29, where the vehicle covered 16,556 miles in just under a year. Similarly, between 2021-12-01 and 2022-12-06, it accumulated 9,102 miles in about 12 months. These periods of rapid mileage accumulation likely contributed to increased wear on consumables, suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components. Given the high mileage and age of the vehicle, it would be prudent for a buyer to inspect the suspension components, such as coil springs and bushes, for signs of wear or deterioration. The brake system, including discs and pads, should also be examined for excessive wear, as high mileage can lead to premature brake component degradation. Additionally, a thorough check for any signs of structural rust or corrosion, particularly in areas prone to moisture accumulation, would be advisable to ensure the vehicle's structural integrity. There are no specific recurring faults or advisories in the MOT history that necessitate immediate attention beyond general wear and tear inspections. However, the buyer should still conduct a comprehensive in-person evaluation to assess the vehicle's overall condition and address any potential concerns.
