2016 Ford B-MAX 1.0L Petrol · JS16 WED

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, as evidenced by a clean MOT pass in February 2026 at 32,279 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable trajectory following a period of minor advisories. While previous tests identified consumable wear issues, the absence of any defects in the most recent inspection indicates that the previous owner has addressed outstanding faults and is maintaining the car to a functional standard. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,200 miles per year. Data shows a consistent usage pattern, with mileage increasing from 7,440 miles in 2022 to 12,909 miles in 2023, and reaching 32,279 miles by 2026. This low mileage typically suggests less mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion due to lack of regular use. A physical inspection should focus on the areas that have previously shown signs of wear or deferred maintenance. The March 2024 test at 19,882 miles flagged thin front brake pads, and the February 2025 test at 26,521 miles noted both front tyres were near the legal limit. A buyer should verify the current depth of the front brake pads and ensure the tyres have been replaced with adequate tread patterns. Additionally, the damaged nearside rear lamp cluster mentioned in 2024 should be checked to ensure the replacement is secure and free of moisture ingress.
