AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2016 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 July 2025 at 112,527 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean annual results since at least 2021. Annual mileage has averaged close to 11,250 miles, consistent with typical use for a ten-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 69,379 miles in July 2021, 77,527 in July 2022, 89,081 in July 2023, 100,511 in July 2024, and 112,527 in July 2025. No gaps or abrupt jumps appear in the sequence, and every test passed with zero advisories on consumables or mechanical items. The absence of any flagged tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, or corrosion across five consecutive tests suggests the previous owner kept basic upkeep current. A clean sheet with no minor wiper or tread notes implies faults were corrected before each examination rather than carried as advisories. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underside rust given the car's age, and verify the brake calipers and exhaust emissions operate within spec. The MOT history alone shows no recurring problems, but it does not capture wear between tests.
