2012 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · GJ12 THF

The 2012 Ford C-Max presents a stable and highly consistent maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at its most recent MOT on 14 December 2025 at 99,186 miles. As of today, this test is just over six months old, providing a highly current snapshot of the vehicle's mechanical condition. No defects were recorded at this inspection, nor at any of the preceding three annual tests. This unblemished record indicates a vehicle that has remained structurally sound and mechanically compliant over the last four years, with no recurring faults or deteriorating components flagged by examiners. The mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical domestic use for a vehicle of this age. Between the January 2022 test at 74,869 miles and the January 2023 test at 83,248 miles, the vehicle covered 8,379 miles. The subsequent year saw a slight reduction to 9,117 miles, recorded between January 2023 and January 2024. From January 2024 at 92,365 miles to the December 2025 test at 99,186 miles, the C-Max accrued 6,821 miles over nearly twelve months, confirming a steady, low-mileage usage pattern. There are no alarming gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer readings that would suggest prolonged standing or severe neglect. Despite the flawless MOT history, a physical inspection remains essential to verify the condition of age-related consumables and structural components not always fully captured during a standard MOT. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perishing or corrosion, typical of a fourteen-year-old vehicle. The brake discs and pads should be measured for wear, alongside a thorough check of the exhaust system for early signs of corrosion. Tyre age and tread depth also warrant attention, as older rubber can degrade structurally even with sufficient tread.
