2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · BD66 AAK

This 2016 Ford Focus presents a remarkably clean MOT record. The most recent test in February 2026 at 90,138 miles passed with no defects, and the preceding failure at 90,137 miles also recorded no defects – that failure likely stemmed from a minor administrative or preparation issue corrected on the same day. The entire history shows no advisories or failures for mechanical or structural items, indicating a stable and well-maintained condition over the past three years. The mileage of 90,138 miles over roughly ten years equates to about 9,014 miles per year, which is typical for a car of this age. The annual test intervals show consistent usage: 76,313 miles in February 2023, 81,161 in January 2024, 88,678 in February 2025, and 90,138 in February 2026. The jump of about 7,500 miles between 2024 and 2025 is slightly higher than the average but not alarming. The gap between 2025 and 2026 is only about 1,460 miles, suggesting lighter use in the last year. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes. Given the absence of any flagged defects, a buyer should still perform a thorough pre-purchase inspection. For a ten-year-old Ford Focus, common areas of concern include rear suspension bushes and coil springs, which can corrode or crack without triggering an MOT alert until they become severe. Brake discs and pads may be nearing replacement if not already done, and the handbrake mechanism should be checked for binding. Structural corrosion is unlikely given the clean history, but a visual check of sills and subframes is prudent. The clean MOT record is a strong positive, but it does not guarantee that consumables like tyres, wiper blades, or brake fluid have been replaced recently.
