  • Ford C-MAX - Ford C-Max 1.6 Engine Models 22 Mar 2025 (Forum)
    Have been advised on this forum on a previous thread to consider a Ford C-Max but avoid the 1.0L EcoBoost and anything with Powershift auto. I am looking at 2012+, under 90k miles, petrol, manuals. There are 3 ads for 2012/2014 1.6T EcoBoost Titaniums? Are these ones to avoid due to the EcoBoost feature or is that only with the 1.0L engines?
  • Ford C-MAX - Replace Skoda Fabia with Ford C Max or keep? 19 Aug 2019 (Forum)
    It's running fine and we are very happy with it. My parents are replacing their car and have very generously offered to give us their Ford C Max, 2013, 73,000. It will probably cost us £195 each year to insure.  Should we change our car? Which is likely to run problem free for longer or cost less in repairs? Anything else we should consider?
