2013 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · ML63 EYK

The 2013 Ford C-MAX presents a clean bill of health through its entire recorded MOT history, with the most recent test on 29 October 2025 at 93,777 miles passing with zero defects. Every recorded test from November 2021 through October 2025 returned a pass with no advisories or failures, indicating a stable and well-maintained vehicle. The maintenance trend is firmly stable, with no recurring faults, no escalating wear items, and no evidence of deferred repairs across five consecutive annual tests. The mileage accumulation is consistent and predictable. Between November 2021 at 77,433 miles and October 2025 at 93,777 miles, the vehicle covered 16,344 miles over roughly four years, averaging approximately 4,086 miles per year during that window. The annual increments between tests range from 3,061 to 4,061 miles, showing no sudden spikes or suspicious gaps. The overall lifetime average of roughly 7,214 miles per year is typical for a family hatchback of this age, and the steady accumulation pattern suggests regular daily use rather than prolonged standing or aggressive high-mileage driving. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still carry out a thorough physical inspection. The absence of flagged defects does not guarantee the absence of age-related deterioration. At nearly 13 years old, the underside should be examined for corrosion on subframes, suspension mounting points, and brake lines, particularly around the rear beam and inner wing arches where Ford C-MAX models of this era can develop surface and structural rust. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers should be checked for perishing or weeping, as these components degrade with age independently of mileage. The braking system warrants close attention. Even though no binding calipers, worn discs, or deteriorated hoses were flagged, a test drive should confirm even braking with no pulling or judder. Tyre condition and date codes should be verified, as older rubber can harden and crack between annual tests. The exhaust system, including the catalytic converter and mounting brackets, should be inspected for corrosion and gas leaks. Finally, the engine and transmission should be assessed for smooth operation, unusual noises, and fluid leaks, as these are not always captured in a standard MOT inspection.
