2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · CK63 ACX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 10 January 2026 at 74,533 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last several years, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is low for a 2013 model, averaging roughly 5,733 miles per year. However, the data contains a significant discrepancy that requires scrutiny. The record shows 76,524 miles on 6 January 2024, yet the subsequent test on 21 January 2025 recorded a lower figure of 71,133 miles. This drop of over 5,000 miles suggests either a clerical error by the tester or a potential odometer issue. Despite the clean MOT history, the low overall usage and the mileage inconsistency warrant a physical inspection of the rubber components. Cars that spend long periods standing often suffer from perished tyre sidewalls, cracked suspension bushes, and seized brake calipers. A buyer should check for signs of surface corrosion on the underbody and verify the service history to ensure oil changes occurred regardless of the low annual mileage. The failure on 11 January 2025 was resolved within ten days, though the record does not specify the fault. Given the lack of advisories across the board, there are no chronic mechanical trends to flag. Focus the inspection on the discrepancy in the odometer readings to confirm the true mileage before proceeding.
