2011 FORD FOCUS1.6L Diesel

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status having passed its most recent inspection on March 1 2024 at 135,723 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car consistently meets the minimum standard following initial failures. While the record shows failures in both 2022 and 2024, the immediate passes thereafter suggest the previous owners were willing to rectify identified defects to maintain legal compliance rather than allowing mechanical issues to persist between tests. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per annum. Between September 2021 at 90,609 miles and May 2022 at 99,529 miles, the car covered roughly 9,000 miles in just eight months. The rate of use increased significantly to 36,194 miles between the May 2022 and March 2024 tests. This surge in mileage indicates heavy annual use which places accelerated stress on components such as the clutch, suspension bushings, and drivetrain assemblies. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and braking system, as the high-mileage interval between tests often masks progressive wear on control arms and shock absorbers. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the structural integrity along the sills and rear subframe is essential, as these models are prone to corrosion. Although the record does not list specific advisories, the recent jump in mileage justifies a close inspection of rubber components and brake discs to ensure they are not nearing the end of their functional life.
