2014 Ford Grand C-MAX 1.6L Diesel · YC63 DMV

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, indicating a stable and well-maintained mechanical condition. The most recent test on 23 May 2025 at 116,322 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back several years, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered approximately 17,352 miles between the August 2022 test at 83,563 miles and the August 2023 test at 100,610 miles, showing a period of heavier use. Since then, the annual mileage has stabilised, with 5,357 miles added between August 2024 and May 2025. There are no suspicious mileage gaps or sudden spikes that would suggest irregular usage or odometer tampering. The absence of advisories across multiple years is unusual for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The tester flagged no issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions throughout the recorded history. Even the failure on 19 August 2022 was resolved on the same day, and the lack of subsequent mentions of corrosion or structural integrity issues suggests the chassis has been well-preserved. A buyer should still perform a physical check of common wear items that may not trigger an MOT failure. Focus on the condition of the tyre treads and the service history of the timing belt and water pump, as these critical engine components are not checked during a standard MOT. Given the lack of recorded faults, a manual inspection of the clutch bite point and gear transition would be the final step to confirm the drivetrain matches the clean paperwork.
