2016 Ford S-MAX 2.0L Diesel · EJ66 YAV

The 2026-06-18 MOT result stands as the definitive test date for this 2016 Ford S-MAX, confirming that the vehicle passed the 77,735-mile threshold with no recorded defects. This is the most recent test recorded, and the absence of faults indicates that the maintenance history has been relatively stable, with no sudden deterioration in engine performance or structural integrity since the initial inspection. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle has accumulated approximately 7,774 miles annually, which aligns with its age of roughly ten years. The absence of gaps in the record suggests consistent driving habits over the past decade, though the data is sparse enough to warrant careful consideration of potential wear on suspension components. While the mileage is moderate for its age, the presence of specific faults in the 2024-10-24 test indicates that the vehicle has experienced accelerated wear on critical components, such as the rear child seat and rear tyres, which may require immediate attention to prevent future accidents. Given the recurring issues flagged in the 2024-10-24 record, a buyer must inspect the vehicle personally to verify the condition of the rear child seat, rear tyres, and front tyres, as well as the suspension bushings and alignment. The 2026-06-18 test confirms that while the vehicle has maintained its roadworthiness for 16 months, the underlying structural integrity of the rear and front suspension and tyre wear is not yet at a critical level for safe operation, provided that the buyer conducts a thorough visual inspection of these components before purchase.
