2007 Ford C-MAX 1.8L Petrol · AF57 VCD

This Ford C-Max presents an exceptionally clean roadworthiness record, characterized by a total absence of recorded defects or advisories across its most recent testing cycle. The latest pass on 5 February 2026 continues a consistent trend of mechanical stability, with the vehicle meeting all DVSA requirements without the usual wear-and-tear flags typical for a car of this vintage. With 122,730 miles recorded over nineteen years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 6,459 miles per annum. This moderate usage pattern suggests a balanced duty cycle that avoids the risks associated with prolonged inactivity while remaining well below the high-mileage thresholds that typically accelerate the degradation of drivetrain components and interior trim. Despite the clean MOT history, a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension is advised to verify the continued integrity of the vehicle. Pay close attention to the front suspension bushes and coil springs for any signs of hairline cracking or perishability that may not have reached a failure threshold. During a test drive, listen for any knocking or clunking sounds when traversing uneven surfaces or during low-speed manoeuvring, which would indicate emerging wear in the steering rack or wishbone joints. A thorough check of the braking system and engine bay is recommended to ensure the absence of slow leaks or binding. Feel for any vibration or judder through the brake pedal during deceleration, and check the inner wheel arches for signs of excessive brake dust accumulation which could suggest a binding caliper. While the exhaust emissions and structural integrity have passed recent scrutiny, a visual check for surface corrosion on the subframe and sills will confirm the vehicle's long-term viability.
