2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · AF16 NWV

The 2016 Ford Focus presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the 12 January 2026 test at 84,273 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every annual examination from January 2024 onward showing either a pass or a failed-then-passed same-day result carrying no recorded defects. No worsening mechanical faults or structural concerns appear in the data. Recorded mileage sits at 84,273 against a ten-year lifespan, equating to roughly 8,400 miles per year and reflecting typical use for the model age. The odometer moved from 79,550 on 3 January 2024 to 81,100 on 10 January 2025, then to 84,273 by 12 January 2026, a steady annual climb of around 2,000 to 3,000 miles. The MOT trail is sparse but clean, showing no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, exhaust emissions, or corrosion across the three years logged. The repeated failed-then-passed entries on 10 January 2025 and 12 January 2026 at identical mileages with no defects listed suggest administrative re-tests rather than mechanical rectification. Previous keepers appear to have kept basic consumable wear and structural integrity within test limits, though the absence of advisories means worn coil springs, binding calipers, or minor subframe corrosion may simply have gone unflagged. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of brake discs, suspension arms, and underbody for rust given the car's age, and verify the 2025 and 2026 failures were clerical not mechanical by checking DVSA test certificates. The low yearly mileage implies lighter duty, but standing periods can hide perishing seals or flat-spotted tyres not captured by the MOT record.
