2011 Ford C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · SA60 ABZ

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a successful test on 12 February 2026 at 123,015 miles. This recent pass, achieved just five days after a failed attempt, indicates that the car is currently in a roadworthy condition with no outstanding defects reported by the examiner. The lack of recorded advisories across recent history suggests a stable maintenance trend, though the rapid succession of tests implies that minor issues identified during the initial inspections were rectified promptly to secure the pass. The mileage data presents a significant inconsistency that warrants caution. While the vehicle recorded 152,570 miles in February 2024, the subsequent test in February 2025 shows 162,237 miles, yet the most recent entry from February 2026 lists the mileage at 123,015. This discrepancy suggests either a clerical error during the data entry process at the testing station or a potential replacement of the instrument cluster. Given that the vehicle is fifteen years old, an average of 8,201 miles per year is typical, but the reported mileage drop of nearly 40,000 miles between 2025 and 2026 is a major red flag that requires verification against the physical service history and V5C documentation. Prospective buyers should prioritize a thorough inspection of the vehicle's structural integrity and mechanical wear, as the clean MOT record does not account for the conflicting mileage data. Verify the odometer reading against previous service invoices to confirm if the current figure is accurate or if the dashboard has been tampered with or replaced. Inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components for signs of neglect, as these items often escape detailed scrutiny during a standard MOT. Confirm the condition of the chassis for any underlying corrosion that might have been overlooked, ensuring the vehicle's history aligns with its physical state before committing to a purchase.
