2015 Ford S-MAX 2.0L Diesel · GX15 ADV

This Ford S-Max presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent record of clean passes. The most recent test on 24 July 2025 at 77,302 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similar pattern from previous years, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for an eleven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,027 miles per year. Usage has remained steady, though there was a notable increase in annual distance between July 2023 and July 2024, where the odometer rose from 58,869 to 70,829 miles. The subsequent year saw a lower accumulation of 6,473 miles. This variation is minor and does not suggest any irregular usage patterns or periods of prolonged standing that would typically cause seal perishment or battery degradation. The absence of any advisories over the last four tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age and suggests a proactive approach to maintenance. The record shows a failure on 25 July 2024, but the immediate pass on the same day with no recorded defects implies a minor administrative error or a rapid rectification of a trivial item. There are no mentions of corrosion, suspension bush wear, or brake disc deterioration across the entire history. A physical inspection should still focus on common S-Max weak points that MOT testers often overlook if they are not critical. Check the condition of the rear suspension components and inspect the chassis for surface corrosion, particularly around the sills. Given the clean record, the buyer should verify that service intervals have been met via stamped invoices, as the MOT history confirms legal roadworthiness but does not document essential engine oil changes or timing belt replacements.
