2013 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · RK10 ADK

The most recent MOT test on 6 September 2025 at 85,354 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, confirming the vehicle currently meets statutory roadworthiness standards. The maintenance trend across the supplied history remains stable, showing consecutive clear tests apart from an anomalous failure on 5 September 2024 at 79,980 miles that listed no defects and was immediately followed by a pass on the same date at identical mileage. That duplication points to an administrative anomaly rather than a worsening mechanical fault. Prior owners kept the test schedule unbroken. Mileage progression fits expectations for a 2013 Ford Focus. The record shows 72,967 miles on 21 August 2023, nudging to 72,970 miles by 7 September 2023, then 79,980 miles at the September 2024 tests, and 85,354 miles by September 2025. Annual accumulation averages near 6,500 miles, matching the approximate 6,566 miles per year implied by age and total distance. No abrupt surges or prolonged gaps appear. The sparse but clean ledger suggests disciplined periodic presentation for testing rather than deferred upkeep. A buyer should still arrange a hands-on inspection of typical age-related components despite the absence of recorded advisories. At thirteen years old, suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs may harbour wear within tolerance that the test did not flag. The DVSA entries note no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, yet this model generation often develops rear axle rust and tired anti-roll bar links. A workshop should lift the car to scrutinise subframe condition, examine for binding calipers, and assess exhaust emissions under load. The twin September 2024 entries merit a cross-check against the V5C and DVSA database to rule out omitted failure rationale. Beyond that verification, the documented trajectory supports a mechanically sound, lightly stressed example requiring only routine consumable attention.
