2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · OE63 AEN

The 2013 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 6 November 2025 at 129,544 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior annual tests in November 2024 at 119,949 miles and November 2023 at 106,973 miles also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across the available history. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical rate for a thirteen-year-old car, averaging roughly 9,965 miles per year against the 129,544 miles recorded. The gap between the 21 December 2022 test at 93,538 miles and the November 2023 test at 106,973 miles reflects about 13,400 miles in under eleven months, consistent with regular commuting use rather than standing periods. The record is sparse but clean, with only a single anomalous failure on 6 November 2023 at 106,973 miles that listed no defects, immediately followed the same day by a pass at identical mileage, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a genuine fault. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage, as these components accumulate fatigue invisible to a defect-free MOT. The absence of advisories across five years implies either diligent upkeep or testers exercising leniency on wear-item reporting. Structural corrosion around sills and subframes warrants physical checks, since the record offers no evidence either way on hidden rust. The same-day fail-and-pass on 6 November 2023 points to no recurring defect pattern, and the owner clearly kept the car through consistent annual testing. No tyre, wiper, or exhaust emission issues appear in the data. Treat the clean sheet as a positive but verify consumable condition before purchase.
