2015 Ford B-MAX 1.6L Petrol · LO65 AWG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a worsening trend regarding reactive repairs. While it passed its most recent test in March 2026 at 130,683 miles, this followed a significant failure just eight days prior that revealed multiple mechanical and safety defects. The transition from a clean record in 2024 to numerous failures in 2026 suggests that components are only being addressed when they reach failure threshold rather than through preventative maintenance. At 130,683 miles over 11 years, the Ford B-Max averages approximately 11,800 miles per year, which aligns with typical annual usage for this age. The mileage accumulation shows steady progress, with roughly 9,800 miles covered between March 2024 and March 2025, and another 7,800 miles between March 2025 and March 2026. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle is driven regularly, which explains the accelerated wear on consumable items and suspension components noted in the latest records. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension and braking system. The March 2026 failure highlighted excessive play in the nearside track rod end and significant corrosion on both rear coil springs. Furthermore, the tester flagged thin front pads and worn discs, along with multiple tyres reaching the legal limit or showing uneven edge wear. The presence of uneven wear on the frontside tyre often indicates alignment issues or worn shock absorbers that require verification to prevent further premature degradation of new rubber.
