2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · AP13 KWV

The vehicle was recorded as PASSING its most recent MOT on 29 October 2025 at 115,910 miles, indicating it remains roadworthy. The pattern of results shows a stable trend; minor advisories such as a deteriorated rear registration plate and general underside corrosion have persisted, but no serious safety failures have emerged since the isolated failure on 2 November 2023 for a front position lamp. Mileage has risen from 78,207 miles in October 2022 to 115,910 miles in October 2025, an average increase of roughly 12,000 miles per year. This progression aligns with the typical 8,000‑9,000 mile annual usage for a thirteen‑year‑old model, suggesting no periods of excessive short‑term mileage accumulation. The record contains no large gaps, and the incremental mileage entries are consistent, reinforcing a regular usage pattern. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the rear registration plate for legibility, as the MOT noted deterioration that could affect identification. The underside corrosion flagged in 2025 and the rear sub‑frame corrosion noted in 2024 merit a visual inspection for any progression that might compromise structural integrity. The near‑side front suspension arm pin or bush was recorded as worn in 2024; probing for excessive play or uneven tyre wear will confirm whether the issue has been remedied. Tyre condition demands scrutiny – the off‑side front and rear tyres were flagged in both 2023 and 2024 as approaching the legal limit, so checking tread depth and uniformity, and confirming correct wheel alignment, is advisable. Finally, the near‑side rear seat belt has been marked as slightly damaged on three occasions; ensure the belt retracts smoothly and the webbing shows no fraying.
