2016 Ford Focus 1.5L Petrol · WO65 AAV

The 2016 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 4 February 2026 at 56,813 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across the recorded history. The test on 3 February 2026 at 56,808 miles returned a fail with no defects recorded, a circumstance pointing to an administrative rejection rather than mechanical fault given the immediate clean pass next day. Odometer readings show low annual use for a decade-old hatchback. In the February 2023 test at 44,635 miles the car passed; by February 2024 at 48,887 miles it covered 4,252 miles; February 2025 at 52,617 miles added 3,730 miles; and the February 2026 tests logged around 4,200 miles over the final year. This equates to roughly 5,600 miles per year since registration, well below typical averages. The sparse, defect-free record offers little evidence of neglect or harsh driving cycles. Previous owners appear to have kept the vehicle to pass standard, as no advisories for tyres, wiper blades, suspension bushes, brake discs or corrosion appear across any test. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and hidden rust, particularly on sills and subframes, given the car's age. The technician should measure brake disc thickness and check coil springs for fracture, while confirming the V5C and test documentation explain the February 2026 fail with no defects. Such verification will close the only gap in an otherwise clean mechanical narrative.
