Mechanical Assessment

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

The 2013 Ford B-Max presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 November 2025 at 71,309 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual test on 27 November 2024 at 64,986 miles also passed clean. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or worsening mechanical faults across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 71,309 against a 13-year lifespan, equating to roughly 5,485 miles per year, which is low for the age. The gap between the February 2024 pass at 58,799 miles and the November 2024 pass at 64,986 miles shows about 6,200 miles added in nine months, a mild uptick from the prior year's pace but still light use. The two failed tests in February and November 2024 list no defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical rejection. The clean MOT record gives no flagged items for suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across any entry. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody for hidden rust, given the low mileage may reflect long standing periods that accelerate perished rubber and brake binding unseen by MOT testers. Verify service history independently and check for intermittent electrical faults or tyre sidewall cracking from age rather than wear. The absence of advisories should not replace a pre-purchase mechanical assessment on a 13-year-old vehicle.
