2011 Ford C-MAX 2.0L Diesel · FD11 XBV

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently poor, as the most recent MOT test on 2026-05-21 at 60,234 miles was passed, whereas the most recent failure occurred on 2026-05-18 at 60,226 miles. This indicates a stable but deteriorating maintenance trend, where the car has been tested repeatedly but consistently failing on specific components, suggesting basic upkeep was likely skipped in the past. The mileage accumulation is significant, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year, which is low for a 2011 model but indicates that the vehicle has not been driven frequently or that the owner has maintained the car for extended periods. The gap between the most recent test and the failure on 2026-05-18 is negligible, suggesting the issue is not a result of rapid wear or a sudden failure mode but rather a cumulative problem. In person, the buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for structural integrity, the brake discs for corrosion, and the exhaust system for emissions. The history reveals that the front coil spring fractured in May 2026, and the front headlamp and direction indicator are not working in May 2025. These recurring faults indicate a clear structural and mechanical risk that requires immediate professional assessment and replacement.
