2012 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · ML12 ADU

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 15 October 2025 at 151,058 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates over the last three years, suggesting the car is currently maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without lingering mechanical issues. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle. Between 17 October 2023 and 15 October 2025, the odometer rose from 128,464 to 151,058 miles. This represents an average of roughly 11,300 miles per year over the last two years, aligning closely with the overall lifetime average of 10,790 miles per year. There are no erratic jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity that would suggest hidden deterioration or misuse. The absence of advisories across multiple tests is unusual for a fourteen year old vehicle with over 150,000 miles. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the underbody for corrosion and check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs. High-mileage Ford C-Max models often develop wear in these areas that may not always trigger an immediate MOT failure but will affect long-term reliability. Attention should be paid to the brake discs and pads to ensure they are not nearing the end of their service life. Given the lack of reported faults, the previous owner appears to have addressed maintenance proactively. A manual check of the engine oil and coolant levels is recommended to confirm that the internal mechanical health matches the clean DVSA record.
