2017 Ford B-MAX 1.0L Petrol · FL17 HSF

The 2017 Ford B-Max presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 March 2026 at 87,106 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the two prior annual tests in March 2025 and February 2024 also closed as passes. The record shows two same-day failure then pass pairs on 13 March 2025 and 27 February 2024 at 81,814 and 77,406 miles respectively, but the DVSA entries list no defects for those failures, indicating administrative or presentation anomalies rather than mechanical faults. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions appear across the four-year span. Recorded mileage sits at 87,106 against a nine-year life, an average of roughly 9,678 miles per year which is typical for the age. The jump from 77,406 miles on 27 February 2024 to 81,814 on 13 March 2025 is only 4,408 miles in just over twelve months, then 5,292 miles to the March 2026 test. The data is sparse and clean with no flagged wear on consumables such as tyres or wiper blades, and no rapid accumulation that would point to excessive drivetrain stress. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle is now past nine years old. The MOT history offers no evidence of binding calipers, failed coil springs, or worn suspension components, but the absence of advisories does not certify component life. Verify the brake disc thickness and suspension arm condition in person, and confirm the two zero-defect failure entries were clerical rather than concealed mechanical rejects.
