2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · FE13 ACO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent test on April 28, 2025, at 83,539 miles passing with no recorded defects. While the history shows a failure just three miles prior on the same day, the immediate re-pass suggests a minor issue that was quickly rectified without indicating systemic mechanical failure. The trend of clean passes over the last several years indicates that the vehicle is being maintained to a functional standard that meets regulatory requirements. At 13 years old with 83,539 miles, the car averages approximately 6,400 miles per year, which aligns closely with typical national averages for a vehicle of this age. The mileage accumulation is consistent, showing a 6,000-mile gap between April 2023 and 2024, and another 8,000 miles between April 2024 and April 2025. This regularity suggests regular road use, which is often beneficial for rubber-based components and brake assemblies compared to vehicles that suffer long periods ofo. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas most likely to trigger failures followed by immediate passes. Since the record does not detail the specific reasons for the failures in 2023 and 2025, a manual check of common Ford Focus issues such as worn bulbs, wipers, or minor fluid leaks is advisable. Given the age of the vehicle, a close examination of the structural integrity along the rear sills and the condition of the front suspension bushes is essential to ensure no hidden corrosion is developing beneath the otherwise clean MOT history.
