2016 Ford C-MAX 1.5L Diesel · CV16 BWF

The 2016 Ford C‑Max passed its most recent MOT on 13 October 2025 at 40,607 miles with no defects recorded, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy at the time of testing. The annual test history shows a consistent pattern of passing inspections without major failures, indicating a stable maintenance record rather than a worsening or improving trend. Mileage accumulation aligns with the car's age, averaging about 4,000 miles per year since the 2019 test at 13,701 miles, but the increments are modest and regular, with each subsequent test occurring roughly one year apart. The jump from 18,077 miles in 2020 to 25,436 miles in 2021 represents a 7,359‑mile increase in a single year, the largest annual rise in the record, yet the overall progression remains steady and does not reveal prolonged periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore focus on the recurring tyre issues noted in 2022 and 2020, where both rear tyres showed edge wear and the near‑side front tyre exhibited perishing, as well as the 2024 advisory on rear brake pad wear, which suggests the braking system may be approaching service limits. Inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs and any binding rear calipers is advisable, together with a thorough check of brake discs, structural rust, exhaust condition and the integrity of the child‑seat anchorage points, to verify that the observed wear has not escalated into serious mechanical faults.
