2013 FORD FOCUS1.6L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT history at its most recent inspection. The May 2025 test at 64,798 miles returned a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a brief failure in May 2024 at 55,280 miles, though the record shows no specific mechanical faults were identified during that failure, suggesting it may have been a clerical error or a minor non-mechanical issue that was rectified immediately. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2013 vehicle, averaging approximately 4,984 miles per year. The data shows a consistent, steady increase in distance covered, moving from 41,129 miles in June 2022 to 64,798 miles in May 2025. This pattern suggests regular, light usage rather than long periods of stationary storage, which is generally positive for preventing rubber degradation and fluid stagnation. While the MOT record is exceptionally clean, the low annual mileage means certain components may have aged due to time rather than wear. A physical inspection should focus on rubber components such as suspension bushes, drive shafts, and tyre sidewalls, which can crack from age even if tread remains deep. Given the vehicle has been in service for 13 years, checking for surface corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system is a necessary precaution. The lack of recurring advisories regarding brake discs, pads, or suspension components indicates a well-maintained vehicle. However, because the mileage is low, the buyer should verify that the service history matches the MOT intervals to ensure that oil and coolant changes have been performed regularly despite the limited road use.
