2010 Ford Focus Zetec 100 1.6L Petrol · SJZ 8007

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass in early January 2026 at 160,506 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable despite a brief failure in late December 2024. That specific failure at 144,749 miles was rectified immediately, as the vehicle passed the retest the following day, suggesting the owner is willing to address urgent mechanical defects promptly to keep the car legal for the road. At 16 years old, the recorded mileage of 160,506 miles reflects a typical annual usage rate of approximately 10,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 18,000 miles covered between January 2023 and December 2024, and another 15,000 miles logged between December 2024 and January 2026. This regular operation suggests the vehicle has not been sitting for long periods, which often helps prevent internal component corrosion and seal degradation. While the MOT history lacks recurring mechanical advisories, the high mileage necessitates a thorough physical inspection of common failure points for this generation of Focus. A buyer should specifically examine the suspension integrity, particularly the control arm bushes and coil springs, which often wear out at this mileage. Given the age of the vehicle, a close look for structural rust on the sills and floor pans is essential, as these areas are prone to hidden corrosion that may not always be flagged until it becomes critical.
