2013 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · AE63 LBO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, though the maintenance history reveals a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive prevention. The most recent test in October 2022 at 133,251 miles resulted in a pass without advisories, suggesting the mechanical issues identified in previous years were addressed. However, the record shows a consistent pattern of failing the MOT and then passing upon 의견, indicating that the owner only rectifies faults when legally necessary to maintain road legality. The mileage progression is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,250 miles per year. There is a significant gap of 27,765 miles between September 2020 (92,226 miles) and September 2021 (110,691 miles), followed by another 22,560 miles until the October 2022 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular use, but the lack of MOT data for the last four years means the current state of wear-and-tear components remains unverified by official records. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the suspension and braking systems. The 2021 test flagged worn suspension arm pins and bushes alongside a noisy offside front wheel bearing, which are common points of failure on this model. Furthermore, the 2020 failure highlighted widespread pitting and scoring on brake discs across all axles and thin pads. While these were likely replaced, the buyer should check for uneven pad wear, binding calipers, or play in the suspension geometry to ensure these components are not reaching the end of their life again.
