2016 Ford Focus 2.3L Petrol · JK11 AND

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in December 2025 at 54,521 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend where the owner has proactively addressed potential issues before testing. There is no evidence of recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation in the recorded data. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,450 miles per annum. The data shows a steady increase in usage between November 2022 at 31,016 miles and December 2024 at 50,410 miles, representing a jump of nearly 20,000 miles in two years. This suggests car was likely used for shorter trips rather than high-distance motorway commuting, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, low annual mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components if the vehicle sits for extended periods. While the MOT record is clear of faults, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to age and low-frequency use. A buyer should check for perished suspension bushes, split tyre boots, and seized brake calipers which can occur when a vehicle is not driven regularly. Given the age, verifying the condition of the brake discs for corrosion and checking the exhaust system is essential, as the MOT test only identifies structural rust once it reaches a significant threshold of decay.
