2016 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · SG66 AEF

This Ford Focus presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent test on 22 August 2025 at 60,250 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates over the last three years, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,025 miles per year. Between 17 August 2023 at 50,095 miles and 22 August 2025 at 60,250 miles, the car covered 10,155 miles. This steady accumulation indicates regular use rather than prolonged periods of standing, which generally helps preserve rubber seals and prevents battery degradation. The absence of advisories across the 2023, 2024, and 2025 tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age. While the record shows no flagged issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion, a buyer should still perform a physical check of these areas. The lack of recorded wear on consumables like tyres or wiper blades suggests either a very diligent maintenance regime or a tester who has been lenient. A physical inspection should focus on the underbody for surface rust and the condition of the brake pads, as the MOT history provides no data on their current thickness. Checking the service history for oil changes and timing belt intervals is essential, as the MOT record only confirms safety and emissions rather than comprehensive mechanical health.
