2008 Ford C-MAX 1.8L Petrol · CE58 AAF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, though the record indicates a pattern of immediate rectifications. The most recent test on 16 August 2022 at 234,644 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a failure just five miles prior on the same day. This suggests the owner is proactive in addressing immediate failure points, such as bulbs or minor mechanical adjustments, to ensure the vehicle passes, rather than allowing defects to persist as multi-cycle advisories throughout the history. The mileage profile reflects heavy usage, totaling 234,644 miles over 18 years, which averages out to approximately 13,000 miles per annum. Between August 2020 and July 2021, the vehicle covered 12,158 miles, followed by another 15,368 miles between July 2021 and August 2022. This consistent, high mileage indicates the car has been used regularly rather than sitting, which typically leads to more predictable wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings. The lack of MOT data since August 2022 means the vehicle is currently four years out of date for its test, representing a significant gap in documented roadworthiness verification. A buyer must focus the physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and mounting points, as high-mileage Ford models often suffer from hidden corrosion. Given the mileage, the suspension control arms, shock absorbers, and drop links should be checked for excessive play or perished rubber. Because the record shows no advisories in the final tests, a thorough check of the brake system for binding or disc thickness is essential, as these components have likely worn significantly since the last recorded test.
