2016 Ford Focus 2.0L Diesel · CA66 AAE

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 11 August 2025 at 67,572 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This trend of clean passes across the last five annual tests suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or significant structural degradation. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use commuter vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per annum. Between the August 2024 test at 46,774 miles and the August 2025 test at 67,572 miles, the car covered over 20,000 miles, indicating a recent spike in usage compared to previous years. However, the overall figure remains well below the national average for a ten-year-old Ford, which suggests that the drivetrain and suspension components have likely experienced less wear than higher-mileage examples of the same age. Since the MOT record shows no historical advisories, a physical inspection should focus on preventative wear that occurs between tests rather than documented faults. A buyer should check the condition of the rubber components, specifically suspension bushes and coil springs, which can perish over a decade regardless of low mileage. Given the recent high-mile interval, it is also prudent to inspect the brake discs for uneven wear and to ensure the tyre tread depth remains sufficient for the increased driving demand noted in the final year.
