2013 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · DV63 UFP

The 2013 Ford C-Max has demonstrated a stable roadworthiness trend over the past three years, with no defects recorded in any of its most recent MOT tests. The most recent inspection on 19 September 2025—just under a year ago—confirmed the vehicle passed without fail, suggesting consistent compliance with UK roadworthiness standards during that period. The absence of advisories or recurring faults implies the previous owner maintained the car within acceptable limits for its age and mileage, though this does not preclude unseen wear or deferred repairs. Mileage progression shows a steady accumulation of approximately 11,400 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps or abrupt jumps in mileage between tests, though the May 2024 entry includes a duplicate entry—one pass and one fail—likely an administrative error rather than a mechanical issue. The most recent test at 148,072 miles was conducted just under a year before today’s date, which is within the standard 12-month MOT cycle, though buyers should verify whether the vehicle has since undergone interim servicing. Given the lack of recorded defects, priority should be given to inspecting high-wear components that are not routinely tested under MOT standards. The suspension system—particularly coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers—should be examined for uneven wear or fluid leaks, as these are critical for handling and safety at this mileage. Brake discs and pads, while not failed in MOTs, may show uneven wear or glazing, and the rear brakes should be checked for binding or excessive noise, as past tests did not probe beyond basic functionality. Structural integrity is also worth assessing, particularly around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, where corrosion can compromise safety without being immediately obvious. Finally, the exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or excessive rust, as catalytic converter efficiency was not specifically tested in these records.
