2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · FA16 MVR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, as the May 2025 MOT at 84,048 miles recorded no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend after earlier failures. The mileage shows a steady annual increase of roughly 8,400 miles, with no large gaps; the jump from 75,944 miles in April 2022 to 80,990 miles in December 2023 represents about 5,000 miles in 1.5 years, confirming regular use and consistent upkeep. Recurring faults include excessive play in the offside front wheel bearing at 80,990 miles, multiple instances of brake pads measuring under 1.5 mm, and tyres worn close to the legal limit with edge wear, suggesting suspension and alignment issues that should be inspected for bearing play, bush condition, and brake disc integrity. A buyer should examine the front suspension assembly, verify brake pad thickness and disc condition, assess tyre wear patterns for unevenness, and inspect the exhaust system and chassis for rust or structural damage, especially around the wheel arches.
