2016 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Petrol · CE16 VHB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes in recent years. The most recent test in October 2025 at 68,005 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. This follows a period of clean inspections in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids the mechanical or structural failures typically seen in older Ford models. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per annum. Between November 2022 at 51,644 miles and October 2025 at 68,005 miles, the car covered 16,361 miles, reflecting a steady but light use. This low-intensity usage generally implies less wear on drivetrain components and engine internals compared to high-mileage counterparts, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components like suspension bushes if the vehicle sits for long periods. The only anomaly in the record is the failure in November 2023 at 57,700 miles, which was rectified immediately to achieve a pass the same day. Since no specific defects were listed for that failure in the provided data, it likely represented a minor item or a simple consumable failure. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection to check for surface corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as these are common weak points for this generation regardless of mileage. Given the low usage, checking the condition of the brake fluid and age of tyres is advisable to ensure they have not suffered from age-related hardening.
