2013 Ford B-MAX 1.0L Petrol · SP63 OME

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in June 2025 at 37,426 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows a clear improvement following a period of reactive repairs. While the car failed its test in 2024 due to corroded brake pipes and a faulty stop lamp, the subsequent pass indicates these specific safety items were addressed. This suggests the current owner is willing to perform necessary mechanical repairs once faults are identified by a tester. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 37,426 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 2,879 miles per year. The data shows consistent annual usage patterns between 2022 and 2025, with the vehicle covering only 1,407 miles over three years. This low mileage profile typically reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain components, but it often correlates with age degradation of rubber-based parts and accelerated corrosion due to lack of use, as evidenced by the recurring issues in the braking system. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front braking system. The recurring corrosion on the nearside and offside front brake pipes between 2022 and 2024 indicates a vulnerability to moisture or environmental damage in that area. Although the 2025 test was clean, a manual check should verify that the new pipes are properly seated and that the nearside front brake disc shows no uneven wear as seen in the 2024 records. Given the low mileage and age of the vehicle, it is also vital to inspect the condition of the suspension bushes, hoses, and tyre sidewalls for dry rot or cracking, which frequently affect cars that sit for long periods.
