2014 Ford B-MAX 1.0L Petrol · CV14 OAA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass on 01 April 2026 at 66,728 miles. The maintenance trend appears remarkably consistent despite a singular technical failure on 31 March 2026 just five miles prior. Given that the failure recorded no specific defects, it likely represents an administrative error or a sensor-related technicality that was immediately rectified, rather than a systemic mechanical decline. Since 2023, the car has passed every annual inspection without recorded advisories, indicating a high standard of consistent upkeep. The mileage pattern is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,560 miles per year. Between March 2023 at 54,570 miles and April 2026 at 66,728 miles, the car covered 12,158 miles, reflecting steady but light usage. This low mileage typically suggests less wear on the drivetrain components, engine internals, and turbocharger. However, low-distance driving can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion if the vehicle is not regularly driven to optimum operating temperatures. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related perish rather than mileage-related wear. Check brake discs for pitting and calipers for seizing, as low-use vehicles often suffer from surface oxidation. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as these materials degrade over a decade regardless of the miles driven. While the MOT history shows no structural issues, a close look at the sills and exhaust mounting points remains necessary to ensure that surface rust has not masked hidden corrosion over the years of service.
