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

The 2025‑07‑23 MOT at 30,037 miles confirms the 2015 Ford B‑MAX remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded and a pass outcome that signals a stable maintenance record. The recent test, conducted just over a year after the August 2024 inspection at 22,196 miles, shows no new faults, indicating that the vehicle’s condition has not deteriorated. The mileage trajectory shows a rise of 7,843 miles between August 2024 and July 2025, a period of 11 months, which translates to roughly 713 miles per month, higher than the average annual increase of 1,733 miles recorded between 2022 and 2023. The 2023‑11‑22 failure at the same mileage as the preceding pass suggests a possible retest rather than a new mechanical issue, and the subsequent clean result at 30,037 miles reinforces a consistent record. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brake calipers are not binding, inspect the brake discs for scoring, and check the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust, especially given the vehicle’s age and the absence of documented corrosion in the MOTs. These components are the most likely sources of recurring faults in a low‑mileage, eleven‑year‑old B‑MAX, and any signs of uneven tyre wear or abnormal noises should be noted during the inspection. The low mileage relative to its eleven‑year lifespan indicates light usage or extended periods of inactivity, but the recent clean test implies that previous owners have maintained the car adequately; a thorough visual and functional inspection remains essential before purchase.
