2016 Ford S-MAX 2.0L Diesel · N13 KKP

This Ford S-Max demonstrates an exceptionally stable maintenance trend and remains roadworthy. The most recent MOT on 30 September 2025 at 77,100 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of five consecutive years of passes without a single advisory or failure, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a ten-year-old vehicle. Between the September 2021 test at 51,152 miles and the September 2025 test at 77,100 miles, the car covered 25,948 miles. This averages roughly 6,500 miles per year over that period. The steady increase in distance suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, which generally helps preserve rubber components and prevents brake seizure. The absence of any recorded advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions is unusual for a vehicle of this age and suggests proactive ownership. There are no recurring faults in the DVSA record to flag as areas of concern. The lack of structural integrity issues or corrosion notes indicates the chassis has been well preserved. A physical inspection should still focus on standard wear items that the MOT may not flag as urgent. Check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads, as these are consumables that wear regardless of a clean MOT pass. Verify the service history for oil changes and timing belt intervals to ensure the mechanical upkeep matches the cleanliness of the official inspection record.
