2016 Ford Focus 2.0L Diesel · J14 KBU

The 2016 Ford Focus presents a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 4 October 2022 at 58,934 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. The vehicle carries a clean advisories and failures profile across the supplied history, indicating no escalating mechanical concerns across the observed period. Recorded mileage sits at 58,934 against a ten-year-old car, equating to roughly 5,900 miles per year and confirming light use for its age. The gap between the 28 September 2021 pass at 47,105 miles and the October 2022 test shows about 11,800 miles added in thirteen months, a modest annualised rate. The only blemish is a failed test on 27 September 2021 at identical mileage of 47,105 miles with no defects logged, reversed the next day by a pass, which suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Given the sparse and clean record, the buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points, particularly sill and subframe areas where standing vehicles degrade unseen. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant physical checks despite no tester flags, as low-mileage cars often suffer from perished rubbers and surface rust through inactivity. The rapid one-day fail-and-pass sequence in September 2021 implies no owner neglect of consumables or serious components, but the four-year lapse since the last test means current tyre tread, wiper condition, and exhaust emissions remain unverified by DVSA data.
