2011 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · MA11 UGX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following a clean MOT pass on 29 May 2025 at 86,317 miles. While the history shows two failures in 2024 and 2025, these were rectified immediately as the subsequent tests recorded no further defects or advisories. The lack of recurring technical advisories suggests that the current owner is proactive in addressing MOT failures rather than allowing minor issues to escalate into significant mechanical faults. The mileage profile is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,754 miles per year. Between May 2023 at 70,397 miles and May 2025 at 86,317 miles, the car covered only 15,920 miles. This low usage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber-based components. The consistency of the annual testing indicates a regular maintenance pattern despite the low annual mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to age rather than mileage. Specifically, examine the suspension bushes, coil springs, and engine mounts for cracking or perished rubber, as vehicles that sit frequently often suffer from hardening. Check the brake discs and calipers for corrosion or pitting, as low-frequency use leads to surface rust or binding. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the structural integrity around sills and wheel arches is essential to ensure that hidden rust has not compromised the chassis over time.
