2015 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Petrol · EN15 AEJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on a consistent history of passing MOT inspections. The most recent test on 7 November 2023 at 78,823 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating the car met minimum safety standards at that time. While the record shows failures immediately preceding the passes in both 2022 and 2023, these appear to be isolated incidents that were rectified quickly rather than signs of escalating mechanical or structural decline. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,166 miles per year. Between the 40,005 miles in October 2021 and 58,822 miles in October 2022, the car covered nearly 19,000 miles in a single year, followed by 20,000 miles recorded in the following year up to the November 2023 test. This suggests regular, active use which is often beneficial for rubber components, seals, and brake de-rust compared to vehicles that sit idle for long periods. Because the MOT record lacks specific advisory notes or detailed failure reasons, a buyer must conduct a physical inspection of common wear points for this model. Pay close attention to the condition of the suspension bushes and coil spring mounts, which often perish at this age regardless of low mileage. Given the age of the vehicle, check the chassis for structural surface corrosion and inspect the brake discs for significant pitting or uneven wear. Since the last MOT was conducted over two years ago as of today's date, the vehicle is currently overdue and requires a fresh test to ensure no new faults have developed during the recent period of non-testing.
