2013 Ford Focus Zetec S Tdci 1.6L Diesel · RXZ 3065

The vehicle shows a stable and commendable maintenance trend, evidenced by a clean pass on 20 February 2026 at 95,075 miles. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories across the most recent three consecutive tests suggests that the current owner has maintained the car to a high standard. This clean record indicates that critical components, including the braking system, suspension, and lighting, are functioning within legal parameters and have not required remedial intervention for some time. With 95,075 miles recorded over thirteen years, the vehicle averages approximately 7,300 miles per annum, which is well within the expected range for a diesel hatchback of this age. The mileage accumulation has remained consistent, with roughly 8,000 miles added between the November 2023 and January 2025 tests, followed by a similar rate of use leading into the 2026 inspection. There are no concerning gaps in the history that would suggest prolonged periods of inactivity, which often lead to seized calipers or perished rubber components. The November 2023 failure remains an anomaly given the immediate retest pass twelve days later, likely indicating a minor administrative or equipment-related issue rather than a mechanical failure. Despite the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the diesel particulate filter and the turbocharger assembly, as these are common failure points on high-mileage Ford TDCI engines that do not always manifest as immediate MOT test failures. Inspect the underside for any signs of surface corrosion on the subframes and check the condition of the suspension bushes, as these parts often reach the end of their service life at this mileage regardless of a clean pass certificate.
