Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the most recent test on 9 January 2026 resulting in a pass with no defects. While the history shows a stable trend of passing tests, there have been intermittent advisories regarding consumable wear and restricted inspections due to child seats, though the two most recent inspections have been entirely clear of defects. The recorded mileage of 40,758 miles is low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 4,529 miles per year. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has seen lighter than average road use, which typically results in less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage examples, though it can lead to different wear characteristics for rubber components and seals. Attention should be paid to the front tyre wear noted in January 2024, where both the nearside and offside front tyres were recorded as worn close to the legal limit, specifically on the inner edges. This pattern of wear often indicates a requirement for wheel alignment or tracking correction. During a test drive, the buyer should check for any steering pull or instability and visually inspect the current tyre treads for uneven wear patterns that could suggest ongoing alignment issues. The 2022 inspection highlighted that both front and rear brake pads were wearing thin. While subsequent tests have been clean, it is important to verify the current thickness of the pads and the condition of the brake discs. Listen for any grinding or squealing during braking and feel for any pedal judder or lack of bite, ensuring that the braking system operates smoothly and consistently across both axles.

Our Verdict

This Ford C-Max is a solid candidate for

When viewing this vehicle, prioritise checking the condition of the tyres and brakes, as these were flagged as advisories in 2022 and 2024. Ensure that the tyres currently fitted have sufficient tread depth across the entire width of the tyre, as previous inner-edge wear suggests a potential need for a wheel alignment check.

Request to see any invoices for recent maintenance to verify if the brake pads mentioned in the 2022 MOT were replaced. Given the 1.6-litre petrol engine, listen for any uneven idling or unusual engine noises during a test drive, and verify that all seatbelts function correctly, as child seats previously obstructed these during inspections.

The 1.6-litre petrol engine in this C-Max is a common unit, meaning parts are widely available and generally affordable. You should expect moderate fuel economy typical for a vehicle of this size and age, though this will vary depending on urban versus motorway driving patterns.

Tax and insurance costs will be standard for this class of MPV. Annual maintenance should be budgeted to include regular oil and filter changes, plus periodic checks on wear-and-tear items like tyres and brakes. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing, are approximately £1,300–£1,600.

Begin your inspection by checking the tyre sidewalls and tread depth, specifically looking for the inner-edge wear patterns that were noted on the 2024 MOT certificate. Ensure the front and rear brake pads have plenty of material remaining, as these were flagged as 'wearing thin' in 2022.

Test the functionality of all seatbelts in the rear, as child seats were previously noted as obstructions during inspections. Finally, check the general condition of the exterior, ensuring the silver paintwork is free from significant corrosion and that all lighting units are fully operational, as lamps are a common failure point for this model.

This 2017 Ford C-Max in silver has covered 40,758 miles over its nine-year life. The MOT record shows five consecutive passes, with no test failures recorded during this period. While there were advisories regarding tyre wear and brake pad thickness in previous years, the most recent two tests were completed with no defects noted.

The Ford C-Max performs in line with industry standards, with an aggregate MOT pass rate of 79.4% across the analysed fleet.
