2007 Ford C-MAX 1.8L Petrol · YS57 ABV

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 with 134,743 miles and no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable and proactive, as the owner addressed previous failures in 2023 and 2024 to secure subsequent passes. The clean sheet from the latest test indicates that the mechanical issues identified in earlier years were successfully rectified and have not escalated into into recurring structural failures. At 19 years old, the recorded 134,743 miles average to approximately 7,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for an MPV of this age. The data shows consistent use, with roughly 4,700 miles covered between March 2023 and March 2024, and another 4,154 miles between March 2024 and September 2025. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often protects internal seals and prevents brake components from excessive seizing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that caused the failures in 2023 and 2024, although the records provided do not specify the exact mechanical faults for those dates. Given the age of the Ford C-Max, it is essential to check for corrosion on the rear subframe and structural sills, as these are common weak points on this chassis. Inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often show wear at the 130,000-mile mark regardless of annual mileage.
