2011 FORD FOCUS ZETEC 1051.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 5 December 2025 at 78,748 miles resulted in no defects recorded, mirroring the clean results of the previous four annual tests. This consistency suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation during the inspection process. The mileage pattern is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,250 miles per year. Between October 2021 at 51,768 miles and December 2025 at 78,748 miles, the car covered 26,980 miles, indicating a consistent and low-usage profile. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and braking system, the long intervals between tests suggest the car may sit stationary, which can occasionally lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or fluidrelated issues. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age and low-mileage use. Specifically, check the suspension bushes, coil springs, and ball joints for signs of cracking or perish that occurs regardless of mileage. The brake discs and calipers should be examined for pitting or surface corrosion if the vehicle has sat unused for extended periods. Additionally, inspect the chassis for corrosion along the sills and wheel arches to ensure that the structural integrity has not been compromised by rust over the vehicle's lifespan.
