2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · AV16 OKL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on March 2025 at 58,274 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating the car is currently in good mechanical condition. Following a single failure in early February 2023, the vehicle has cleared two consecutive tests without any advisories, suggesting that the previous owner has addressed any emerging issues and maintained the standards. The mileage profile is low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. Between February 2022 at 42,470 miles and March 2025 at 58,274 miles, the car covered 15,804 miles, showing consistent and light usage patterns. This low accumulation typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine compared to higher mileage examples. However, long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to agerelated wear despite low mileage. While the MOT record is clean, the tester should check for perished suspension bushes, leaking shock absorbers, and seized brake calipers which can occur with infrequent use. Given the age of the Ford Focus, a close look at the underside for structural corrosion or thinning sills is essential, as the MOT history does not yet flag any emerging rust. The lack of recorded advisories suggests the vehicle has been well-kept, but a manual check of tyre tread depth and fluid levels remains necessary.
