Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2013 Ford S-Max shows a currently roadworthy status with a clean pass recorded on 27 March 2025 at 103,789 miles and no defects listed. The maintenance trend appears stable across the recent test cycle, with the latest examination revealing no advisories or mechanical concerns. Prior to this, the vehicle cleared the 20 March 2024 test at 100,828 miles with no faults noted. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,984 miles per year. The record moves from 97,793 miles on 24 February 2023 to 100,828 miles by March 2024, then 103,789 miles by March 2025, reflecting consistent annual use of around 3,000 miles. The DVSA data contains no advisories across any entry, so the history is sparse on wear indicators but clean of recorded defects. Two failed tests appear on 19 March 2024 and 24 February 2023, both at the same mileages as the subsequent passes on the following day and with no defects recorded. This pattern suggests administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical failure, though a buyer should confirm the original failure reasons via the full DVSA certificate. No recurring suspension bushes, brake disc, or corrosion problems emerge from the supplied record. Given the absence of flagged items, a buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity, exhaust emissions, and binding calipers, as a clean MOT does not certify component life remaining. The low annual mileage implies lighter use, but standing periods can accelerate rubber perishing and fluid degradation not captured in the test data.
