2006 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · LT06 AGV

This vehicle is in a stable state of roadworthiness with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 27 March 2026 at 90,398 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to early 2023, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without requiring significant corrective work during the annual inspections. The mileage is notably low for a twenty year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,520 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady and modest, increasing by 2,369 miles between March 2023 and March 2024, and by 2,958 miles between March 2024 and March 2025. The low annual usage suggests the car has avoided the heavy wear typically associated with high-mileage commuters, though it may have spent periods of time stationary. The MOT history is unusually clean, with no advisories flagged regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions over the last four years. A failure on 27 March 2023 at 84,356 miles was resolved on the same day, though the record does not specify the defect. This lack of recorded wear on consumables is rare for a 2006 model and may indicate a very diligent owner or a tester who was less stringent. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and chassis rails, as the MOT record does not highlight any rust but age remains a primary risk factor. Check for perishing rubber components and tyre age, as low-mileage vehicles often require new tyres due to cracking rather than tread wear. Testing the battery and checking for seized brake calipers is also advisable given the low annual mileage.
