2016 Ford Focus 1.5L Petrol · EN16 RVC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of MOT passes. The most recent test on 29 January 2026 at 61,749 miles resulted in a pass following a technical failure just two miles prior. While the failure recorded no specific defects, the immediate rectification suggests a minor adjustment, such as a bulb replacement or a sensor check, performed before the retest. Since 2023, the car has maintained a clean record, indicating a reliable level of mechanical upkeep by the owner. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useage commuter vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between April 2023 at 48,846 miles and January 2024 at 51,499 miles, the car covered 2,653 miles, followed by a larger interval of 4,482 miles between the January 2024 and January 2025 tests. This low annual mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain components and engine internals, though it can occasionally lead to dry-rubber components or brake corrosion during long periods of inactivity. Because the MOT history shows no advisories for structural rust or suspension components, a physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation rather than high mileage. A buyer should check for cracking in rubber bushes and control arm mounts, which can perish over a decade regardless of low mileage. Given the infrequent use, the brake discs should be inspected for surface pitting or corrosion, and the tyres should be checked for flat spots or sidew cracking if the tread depth remains sufficient.
