2010 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · BV60 UEE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 29 April 2025 at 128,484 miles. While the latest result shows no defects, the overall maintenance trend indicates a period of instability leading up to this. The car failed three consecutive tests between 2023 and 2025, suggesting that the owner only addressed mechanical issues once they became a legal failure point rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. At 128,484 miles over 16 years, the Focus has averaged approximately 8,030 miles per year, which aligns with typical national averages for a vehicle of this age. The data reveals a significant stagnation in usage between October 2023 and April 2025, where the car covered only roughly 380 miles in nearly two years. This pattern suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components, seized brake calipers, and fluid breakdown despite the low annual mileage. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components to account for the recurring failures in the history. The record does not specify the exact reasons for the failures, but the frequency of defects necessitates a close check for structural corrosion on the subframes, worn control arms, and perished suspension bushes. Given the long periods of inactivity, inspect the brake discs for pitting and check the tyres for flat spotting or cracking, as these are common failure points for vehicles that are infrequently driven.
