Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2016 Ford Focus shows a passed MOT dated 19 June 2023 at 39,701 miles, yet that certificate expired in June 2024 and no further tests appear in the record as of 20 July 2026. Across the available history the maintenance trend is stable, with every annual examination from June 2020 to June 2023 recording no defects or advisories. The single failure logged on 24 June 2022 at 34,650 miles listed no faults and was immediately followed by a pass on the same day, indicating an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical concern. Mileage accumulation has been consistently low for a ten-year-old vehicle. The odometer advanced from 20,713 miles in June 2020 to 26,990 by June 2021, then 34,650 by June 2022, and 39,701 by June 2023, averaging roughly four thousand miles per year with no abrupt jumps. Such gentle use suggests careful local driving, but the absence of any MOT entry for the three subsequent years implies the car has stood idle or been used without valid test, raising the risk of deterioration from prolonged storage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean paper trail. Long stationary periods can cause suspension bushes to harden, brake calipers to bind, and brake discs and exhaust components to develop corrosion even when prior testers noted nothing. The tester never flagged tyres, wipers, or structural integrity, but rubber perishing and subframe rust may now be present unseen. Verify current roadworthiness with a fresh MOT and scrutinise underside structural integrity, steering joints, and coil springs before purchase.
