2017 Ford C-MAX 1.0L Petrol · DF66 YMV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in December 2025 at 88,250 miles. The maintenance trend appears generally stable, despite a significant failure recorded on that same day just one mile prior. The tester initially flagged a nearside front brake pad below the 1.5mm legal limit and an inoperative engine malfunction indicator. The fact that these issues were addressed immediately to secure a pass suggests the current owner is reactive to safety-critical faults rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Data shows a steady accumulation of mileage, moving from 40,670 miles in January 2020 to 88,250 miles by December 2025. There are no unexplained gaps in usage between annual tests, indicating regular use rather than the car sitting for long periods, which typically results in standard wear on rubber components and fluids rather than degradation associated with prolonged standing. A buyer should focus their inspection on the braking system, as the record shows a recurring pattern of wear. The tester noted thin rear brake pads at 54,381 miles in 2021 and a critical nearside front failure at 88,249 miles in 2025. This suggests the vehicle may require frequent inspections or that calipers are causing uneven wear. Additionally, the reported engine malfunction indicator failure in the December 2025 test warrants a diagnostic scan to ensure no hidden fault codes remain in the engine management system that were cleared just for the test.
