2017 Ford B-MAX 1.0L Petrol · AF17 UKT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test on 27 February 2025 at 86,981 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just the previous day. This suggests the current owner is proactive enough to rectify any immediate issues to ensure compliance. The overall trend indicates a vehicle that maintains its mechanical and structural integrity to a passing standard over the last several years. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per year. The record shows a gap of 31,581 miles between March 2023 (55,400 miles) and February 2025 (86,981 miles), which indicates steady annual use. This regularity is generally beneficial for rubber-based components and brake seals compared to long periods of standing. There are no signs of erratic mileage accumulation that would suggest unusual stress or de-than-normal wear on the drivetrain or suspension assemblies. While the recent records are clean, a buyer conducting a physical inspection should focus on areas prone to wear at this mileage bracket. Given the vehicle's age, the inspector should check for early-stage corrosion on the exhaust and structural seams, as well as the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs. The failures in 2023 and 2025 without recorded defects suggest minor items rectified quickly, but a thorough check of the brake discs and pads is necessary to ensure no binding calipers or uneven wear has developed since the last test.
