2013 Ford B-MAX 1.5L Diesel · DA13 EUO

The 2013 Ford B-Max presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 April 2025 at 107,401 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 2 May 2024 at 95,612 miles. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available history, indicating consistent statutory compliance over the past three years. Recorded mileage sits at a typical level for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,262 miles per year. The odometer moved from 83,411 miles at the August 2022 test to 87,011 miles by April 2023, then jumped to 95,610 miles by May 2024 and 107,401 miles by April 2025. This reflects steady annual use with no standing periods or abrupt accumulation spikes. The only anomaly is the 1 May 2024 failure at 95,610 miles with no defects listed, reversed by a pass one day later at 95,612 miles, which suggests an administrative or data-recording error rather than a genuine mechanical defect. The clean MOT sequence gives no cause to suspect worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake components. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside corrosion, coil springs, and brake disc condition, as MOT passes at this age do not certify component life beyond the test day. The absence of advisories means prior owners kept the car to minimum legal standard, though it reveals little about consumable renewal discipline between tests. Given the sparse but unbroken pass record, the B-Max requires only standard pre-purchase checks. Verify service history independently, test drive for drivetrain noise, and confirm tyre tread depth and wiper condition. The MOT data alone supports a sound roadworthiness verdict with no escalating defect pattern.
