2013 FORD FOCUS1.0L Petrol

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, indicating a stable and high standard of maintenance. The most recent test on 23 July 2025 at 85,697 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes without advisories, suggesting the car has been kept in a roadworthy condition without the typical degradation seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage is typical for a 2013 model, averaging roughly 6,592 miles per year. The accumulation has been steady, growing from 74,365 miles in November 2022 to 85,697 miles by July 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of standing that would suggest neglect or hidden mechanical issues. The record shows a failure and immediate pass on the same day in November 2022, though the lack of recorded defects suggests this was likely a clerical error or a minor administrative failure rather than a mechanical fault. Despite the lack of recorded advisories, a buyer should still perform targeted physical checks on components that the MOT test may not fully stress. Focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often wear on Fords of this era regardless of mileage. Inspect the brake discs for lip wear and check for any signs of surface corrosion on the chassis and sills, as these structural areas can deteriorate even when a vehicle passes its annual inspection. The absence of recurring faults suggests a disciplined approach to upkeep by previous owners. Since the car has not flagged issues with exhaust emissions or binding calipers over the last four years, the drivetrain and braking systems appear healthy. A physical inspection should simply confirm that the current state of the tyres and wiper blades matches the clean record provided by the DVSA.
