2015 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Petrol · AF15 NZD

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test in February 2026 at 78,492 miles. The maintenance trend shows a shift from a clean record in 2022 and 2023 to a period of reactive maintenance starting in 2024. While the car consistently meets testing standards, the appearance of advisories and defects suggests that the owner addresses components only as they approach failure limits rather than performing preventative servicing. At 11 years old, the recorded 78,492 miles represent an average annual usage of approximately 7,136 miles, which aligns with typical low-mileage commuting patterns. The mileage accumulation is consistent across intervals, with roughly 5,000 miles driven between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 4,820 miles leading to the latest entry. This steady usage profile is generally positive for the drivetrain, though it can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber components despite the low mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front braking system. The February 2025 test at 73,672 miles flagged both front brake pads as wearing thin and the discs as worn. Although these were not mentioned in the subsequent 2026 test, the buyer must verify if these parts were actually replaced or if the wear has progressed. Additionally, the 2024 advisory regarding front tyres being worn on the edge indicates a potential wheel alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be checked to prevent premature tyre degradation. The record also shows a recurring issue with the rear light lenses and tailgate lamp, noted in 2024, 2025, and 2026. While these are minor cosmetic defects that did not cause failures, the moisture ingress through cracked lenses could lead to electrical faults. There are no records of structural corrosion or suspension failures in the history, suggesting the chassis integrity remains in a good condition for its age.
