2016 FORD FOCUS1.0L Petrol

The 2016 Ford Focus presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 January 2026 at 121,492 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of passes since at least 2022. The vehicle shows no advisories or failures across the entire five-year MOT history supplied, indicating consistent compliance with statutory test standards and no escalating mechanical concerns. Mileage accumulation sits above typical averages for a ten-year-old car, with the record showing roughly 12,149 miles per year. The odometer climbed from 47,495 miles at the 12 January 2022 test to 55,840 by 13 January 2023, then 68,465 on 7 January 2024, 95,954 on 31 January 2025, and 121,492 on 30 January 2026. The largest single-year jump occurred between the 2024 and 2025 tests, adding 27,489 miles in under thirteen months, suggesting a period of heavy use likely from commuting or business mileage. No standing gaps appear; each test falls within statutory windows. The absence of recorded faults means no recurring suspension bushes, coil spring fractures, binding calipers, or structural corrosion were flagged by testers. A clean sheet across five tests implies previous owners addressed wear before each examination rather than letting advisories accumulate. That said, the high annual mileage and recent 27k-year stretch warrant a physical inspection of brake disc thickness, tyre tread depth, and underbody rust protection, as these consumables degrade silently between tests. A buyer should commission an independent inspection of the drivetrain and suspension geometry given the car's age and elevated use. The MOT record alone offers no evidence of neglected upkeep, but official tests capture only test-day condition. Verify service history matches the mileage jumps, particularly around the 2024 to 2025 high-use period.
