2014 Ford C-MAX 2.0L Diesel · HF64 XJB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in December 2025 at 71,852 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory following a failure in late 2024. While the 2024 test revealed multiple safety failures related to tyres and wipers, the subsequent pass in 2025 indicates that the owner addressed these immediate mechanical concerns to bring the vehicle back to legal standards. At approximately 12 years old, the recorded mileage of 71,852 miles represents a low annual average of roughly 6,000 miles. The data shows a very consistent usage pattern, with approximately 5,400 miles driven between the December 2024 and 2025 tests. This low mileage often suggests less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the likelihood of age-related degradation in rubber-based parts that dry out or perish during long periods of inactivity. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres, as the history shows a recurring pattern of perishing and damage. The 2024 failure flagged a nearside front tyre reaching the cords and a cracked nearside rear tyre, while the 2023 advisory noted uneven wear on the edge. This sequence suggests potential alignment issues or suspension bushing wear that should be verified visually. Additionally, the state of the windscreen and wiper blades should be checked, as the vehicle previously failed for not clearing the glass effectively.
