FORD FOCUS2011 · 1.6L Diesel

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 27 February 2026 at 67,488 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent four-year trend of clean passes dating back to February 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2011 model, averaging roughly 4,499 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady and predictable over the last five years, growing from 59,284 miles in February 2022 to 67,488 miles in February 2026. This linear progression suggests regular, light use rather than long periods of stagnation, which reduces the likelihood of seized calipers or perished seals often found in low-mileage cars. Despite the flawless MOT record, a buyer should still verify the condition of rubber components and fluids. Low-mileage vehicles can suffer from premature degradation of suspension bushes and tyre sidewall cracking due to age rather than wear. Check for any signs of corrosion on the underbody and sills, as the MOT tester may not have flagged minor surface rust that does not yet compromise structural integrity. Verify the service history to ensure the oil and filters were changed regardless of the low annual mileage. Low-use engines can accumulate moisture and sludge if the oil is not replaced at regular intervals. A physical check of the brake discs for surface pitting or corrosion is also advisable to confirm the braking system remains fully operational.
