2016 Ford Grand C-MAX 1.0L Petrol · YB65 HTP

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 13 February 2026 at 81,700 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This lack of recorded failures suggests that the previous owners maintained the vehicle diligently, preventing the mechanical or structural issues that typically manifest during the testing process. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,170 miles per year. Between January 2022 at 51,427 miles and February 2026 at 81,700 miles, the car covered 30,273 miles, showing a steady rate of use. There are no significant gaps in testing that would suggest long periods of stagnation, which often leads to perished rubber components or brake corrosion. The gradual mileage accumulation reduces the likelihood of excessive wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage counterparts. While the digital record is exemplary, a physical inspection should focus on specific areas prone to age-related degradation rather than mechanical failure. Given the vehicle's age, a buyer should check for early-stage surface rust on the chassis and exhaust system, as the MOT does not flag corrosion until it becomes structural. The condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs should be verified, as these can perish over time regardless of low mileage. Additionally, the absence of previous advisories for brakes or tyres suggests these consumables may be in good condition, but a manual check of pad thickness and tyre depth remains standard practice.
