2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · AF16 AOM

The 2016 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 February 2026 at 65,229 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, recurring advisories, or structural concerns across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 65,229 against a ten-year lifespan, equating to roughly 6,500 miles per year and reflecting typical use for the age. The test on 18 February 2023 at 45,199 miles, followed by 8 February 2024 at 48,761 miles, 21 February 2025 at 56,773 miles, and the 2026 entry confirm a steady annual accumulation of around 3,000 to 8,500 miles with no abrupt jumps or standing gaps. The DVSA data is sparse but clean, with only a duplicate 8 February 2024 entry showing both a fail and pass at identical mileage and no defects logged, suggesting an administrative re-test rather than a mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age, though the MOT record flags none of these. The absence of advisories across five years implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumable replacement. Verify the 2024 duplicate entry with DVSA to confirm no suppressed defect, then proceed on the strength of a consistent pass history.
