2008 Ford C-MAX 1.8L Petrol · CV58 GHU

The 2008 Ford C-Max presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 15 October 2025 at 60,627 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with every annual examination from 2022 through 2025 returning a pass and no advisories logged at any stage. A failed entry on the same date as the October 2025 pass, also at 60,627 miles and showing no defects, points to an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault, likely a documentation or system error at the testing station. Recorded mileage sits at 60,627 after roughly eighteen years, an average of about 3,368 miles per year. The car covered only 1,138 miles between the October 2022 test at 52,157 miles and the October 2023 test at 53,294 miles, then 961 miles to October 2024 at 54,255 miles, and 6,372 miles in the year to October 2025. That final jump is the largest in the record yet still modest. Low overall use suggests light duty, though extended standing periods common with such mileage can allow corrosion or perished rubber components to develop unseen. The clean MOT history gives no flagged items for suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity across the five years shown. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills, subframe, and suspension mounts given the vehicle's age and likely intermittent use. Check for rust on structural members and verify tyre sidewall condition, as low-mileage cars often retain aged rubber beyond safe service life despite passing annual tests. Given the absent advisories, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, though the sparse defect record limits insight into consumable renewal habits. Confirm in person that brake calipers are free and that the cambelt interval for this 2008 unit has been observed, since the MOT does not assess internal drivetrain maintenance.
