You jest, but 2007 was when the first facelift of the C Max was introduced and it was no longer referred to as the "Focus C Max" and became just the "C Max". Yet, despite being FUCKING COMPLETELY different to the initial model, it still was still labelled as a MkI. Bigger changes came in 2010 with the MkII, but the pre and post "facelift" MkI C Max cars still had enough differences to mean that a lot of parts were not interchangeable. So just knowing your C Max was registered in 2007 is not enough to know which parts you might need.
Guess who got really fucked off trying to find a replacement parcel shelf and now knows too much about 2007 Ford C Maxes?
C Maxii? Who cares....

If you take the car, you'll still pay tax on the benefit in kind. I have no idea how they'll calculate that, but they will. How the nickel and dimes play out will likely only make a difference if you take the cash and then buy a cheap shit box to run around in. If the two are anywhere near similar (company car vs what you would buy out of your own money/allowance) then there's probably not much in it beyond how restricted you are by what car they offer.
I (for some reason) have a £433 a month (net) car allowance in my payslip that was negotiated when my last company got acquired. If I had funneled that straight into a car fund, I wouldn't be driving a 2007 C Max.......
