2015 Ford C-MAX 2.0L Diesel · X2 BOL

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile following the most recent MOT pass on 29 May 2025 at 79,161 miles. While the record shows two previous failures, the absence of any recorded advisories in the last two years suggests that any previous issues were resolved and that the vehicle is currently maintaining a clean compliance record. The transition from the 2024 failure to a pass within the same day indicates that the issues identified were likely minor and rectified immediately. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical domestic use pattern for an 11-year-old vehicle. Between the 2023 test at 57,517 miles and the 2025 test at 79,161 miles, the car covered 21,644 miles, averaging roughly 10,800 miles per year. This rate of use is slightly higher than the 7,196 annual average suggested by the total mileage but remains well within the expected parameters for a family vehicle of this age. There are no signs of excessive mileage spikes or long periods of inactivity. A physical inspection should focus on the components that typically trigger failures in vehicles of this age and usage profile. Although the recent records are clean, the previous failures suggest the car may have required attention to consumables or minor mechanical adjustments. I recommend checking the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers to ensure no premature wear has developed. The buyer should also verify the condition of the braking system, specifically looking for uneven pad wear or signs of binding calipers. Given the mileage, it is prudent to examine the underside for surface corrosion on the exhaust system and structural mounting points. While the MOT history does not indicate a trend of worsening mechanical health, a thorough check of the tyre tread depth and wiper blades is advised to ensure the vehicle meets current standards.
