2019 Ford C-MAX 1.5L Diesel · SB68 ORL

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive care. The latest test in September 2025 at 54,174 miles passed, yet it flagged an offside front tyre worn to the legal limit and a suspected nearside rear child lock activation. This follows a pattern of deferred maintenance in previous years, suggesting that the owner only addresses faults once they are officially highlighted by the MOT tester. At seven years old, the recorded mileage of 54,174 miles represents an annual average of approximately 7,740 miles, which is consistent with typical UK usage patterns. The data shows steady progression, with roughly 3,400 miles covered between the July 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 3,800 miles between 2023 and 2024. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which helps prevent premature seal failure or degradation of rubber components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and suspension geometry. The July 2024 test at 50,774 miles noted thin brake pads on both rear wheels, and multiple advisories for uneven tyre wear across 2023, 2024, and 2025 indicate a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. You must check for irregular tread wear on all current tyres and ensure the rear brake discs are not scored or pitted, as the history indicates these components are frequently run until failure.
