2007 Ford S-MAX 2.0L Diesel · AJ07 DPV

The 2007 Ford S-MAX presents a currently roadworthy status following a pass on 4 February 2026 with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable in terms of mechanical condition, though the test history shows a recurring pattern of administrative failures immediately followed by passes on consecutive days, first on 31 January 2025 and again on 3 to 4 February 2026, with no defects logged on either the failures or subsequent passes. This suggests the vehicle cleared each time once minor paperwork or presentational issues were resolved, rather than through rectification of worn components. Mileage data remains sparse across the record. The only logged reading is 133,659 miles from the 30 January 2024 pass, with the three later tests showing no recorded mileage and the earlier history absent. Against an eighteen-year-old vehicle, that single figure implies typical use, but without comparative entries we cannot chart accumulation or identify gaps. The clean defect record across all five entries indicates no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust issues at the tested dates. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and consumables despite the clear MOT slate. The same-day fail-pass pairs hint the car may have been presented without addressing trivial items first time, so verify tyre tread, wiper function, and lighting before purchase. Given the age, examine subframe and sill corrosion and test the front suspension arms for worn bushes, as these areas degrade silently between annual tests. The recurring no-defect failures point to an owner who kept the S-MAX mechanically sound but treated MOT presentation loosely. With the most recent pass under five months old relative to today, the vehicle is a reasonable used buy pending a hands-on check of age-related wear not captured by the tester.
