2010 FORD FOCUS1.6L Petrol

The Ford Focus presents a current roadworthy status following the most recent DVSA test on 10 April 2026 at 101,426 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. Prior to that pass, the same day's initial attempt failed yet listed no defects, mirroring an identical pattern on 17 April 2025 at 94,350 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, with no mechanical advisories or faults logged across the three available tests from March 2024 to April 2026. Mileage accumulation sits close to the typical expectation for a 2010 vehicle. The record shows 87,805 miles at the 12 March 2024 test, rising to 94,350 by 17 April 2025 and 101,426 by 10 April 2026. That equates to roughly 6,500 to 7,000 miles annually, reflecting gentle use for a sixteen-year-old car. The history is sparse but clean, offering only three consecutive annual tests with no recorded gaps. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-sensitive components despite the absence of MOT advisories. The tester logged no corrosion, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs or exhaust emissions concerns, yet a Ford of this age may harbour unseen structural rust or perished rubber mounts. Examine the subframe and sills for corrosion, check front suspension bushes for play, and confirm rear brake calipers are not binding after standing. The repeated same-day fail-and-pass entries with zero defects suggest administrative or documentation issues rather than mechanical neglect. Previous owners likely kept the car lightly used and presented it for timely testing, but the anomaly warrants a check of the full V5C and test certificate reasons. Verify in person that no hidden fault prompted the failures before purchase.
