Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- You need seats for a larger family: this advert records 7 seats. Check that your passengers and child seats actually fit.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
Think twice if…
- You need every seat and lots of luggage space: check the boot with all rows in use, third-row legroom and child-seat access.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 12 years old and 242,000 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Most 2014 S‑Max cars in Ireland use Ford's 2.0 diesel families and a manual gearbox; they're comfortable and efficient on long runs but can show EGR/DPF and turbo oil‑seal wear if used mainly for short urban trips. If it's a seven‑seat layout, the third row is often folding flat seats — useful but check for missing fixings and stiff runners on older examples.
- Clutch bite point and gearbox synchro feel — manuals on 12‑year‑old S‑Maxes can show wear or a slipping clutch under load.
- DPF regeneration signs and EGR soot: look for frequent warning lights, excessive smoke, or a soot-caked tailpipe which indicate costly cleaning or repair.
- Turbo shaft play and oil leaks around the turbo/intercooler hoses (loss of midrange power or whistling are common symptoms).
- Third-row seat latches, runners and mounting points — check folding function, seatbelts and that seats lock securely.
- Rear suspension dampers and bushes for sagging or knock, especially if the car has been used towing or carrying heavy loads.
