FORD FOCUS2012 · 1.6L Diesel

The Ford Focus presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 21 October 2025 at 136,910 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, though a failed test one week earlier on 14 October 2025 at 136,624 miles is logged with no defects recorded, a pattern consistent with a documentation or administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or structural concerns appear across any entry. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2012 vehicle, averaging roughly 9,779 miles per year against the 136,910 miles recorded. The gap between the August 2022 test at 89,978 miles and the August 2023 test at 99,782 miles shows light annual use of under 10,000 miles, then a sharper rise to 115,204 miles by October 2024 and 136,910 by October 2025, indicating roughly 21,000 miles covered in the final year. The record is sparse and clean, with no flagged wear on consumables or major assemblies. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the vehicle's age and the higher annual mileage in the last period. The absence of recorded corrosion or exhaust emission failures suggests reasonable structural integrity, but 14 years of service warrants checking for underside rust and tired rubber components not captured by the MOT. The unexplained fail and immediate pass in October 2025 should prompt verification of the test certificates to confirm no suppressed defect.
