2012 Ford B-MAX 1.5L Diesel · OV62 HKB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a brief period of mechanical concern. The most recent inspection conducted in June 2025 at 105,561 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that any previous issues have been successfully addressed. While a failure was noted in June 2024 at 93,405 miles, the immediate pass just four days later suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying the necessary repairs. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-used family car of this age, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per annum. The record shows a steady accumulation of mileage, moving from 74,236 miles in 2022 to 81,257 miles in 2023, and then jumping to over 93,000 miles by the next year test. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which is beneficial for maintaining engine seals and preventing the type of corrosion associated with neglected vehicles. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most likely to have caused the 2024 failure, although the specific reason for that failure is not detailed in the provided summary. Given the age and mileage of this Ford B-Max, a close look at suspension bushes and coil springs is essential, as these often show wear at this stage. You should also check for signs of structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as these are common areas of failure for vehicles of this era that reach the fourteen-year mark.
