2011 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · AV61 UNZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent series of MOT tests. The latest inspection conducted on 24 April 2025 at 107,693 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. While a failure occurred in March 2023, the immediate pass in that same month and subsequent clean results in April 2024 and April 2025 suggest that any identified faults were promptly rectified. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-to-moderate usage profile, averaging approximately 7,180 miles per year. Between January 2023 and April 2025, the vehicle covered 8,815 miles, showing a steady rate of use rather than periods of neglect or heavy commuting. The gap of roughly 4,000 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests indicates regular operation, which often prevents the stagnation that masks underlying mechanical degradation in rubber components and seals. Despite the clean records in the last two years, a buyer should focus physical inspection on common wear points for a fifteen-year-old Ford Focus. The age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of structural corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches, which the MOT test only flags once they become structurally significant. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue or tearing, as these components often degrade over time regardless of mileage. Checking the brake system for binding calipers or uneven wear is also advisable given the vehicle's age.
