2018 Ford Grand C-MAX 1.5L Diesel · WR67 XMX

A consistent track record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, having passed five consecutive tests without a single failure. The most recent inspection on 15 December 2025 resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded, following a similar clean result in 2024. While minor wear-related advisories appeared in earlier years, the overall trend indicates a stable mechanical state with no recurring structural or systemic faults. The recorded mileage of 76,263 miles is typical for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,533 miles per year. This steady rate of accumulation suggests the vehicle has been used for regular duties without prolonged periods of inactivity or excessive heavy-duty usage. Mechanically, this level of mileage typically coincides with the expected wear cycle for friction materials and suspension bushings, though the absence of recent advisories suggests these have been managed. Attention should be directed toward the braking system, as both front and rear brake pads were flagged as wearing thin in 2021 and 2023. Although these are no longer listed as advisories, a test drive should focus on the consistency of the brake pedal pressure and the absence of any judder or pulsation under deceleration, which could indicate uneven disc wear or binding calipers. Given the previous advisory regarding the nearside front inner tyre wearing close to the legal limit, a physical inspection of the current tyre treads is necessary to ensure there is no uneven wear. This specific wear pattern can sometimes be linked to wheel alignment or suspension geometry issues, so the vehicle should be monitored for any steering pull or instability when travelling at cruising speeds.
