2012 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · FD12 RRV

The most recent MOT on 10 March 2026 recorded a pass at 91,168 miles, indicating the vehicle is presently roadworthy. The succession of passes from 2023 through 2025, with no recorded defects, demonstrates a stable maintenance pattern; the isolated fail on the same day carries no fault details and therefore does not alter the overall assessment. Across the fourteen‑year span from its 2012 registration to the latest test, the car has accumulated 91,168 miles, averaging roughly 6,500 miles per year. Mileage increments of about 7,500 miles between each annual test align with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, and there are no conspicuous gaps or sudden spikes that would suggest periods of neglect or excessive short‑term mileage. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to wear items that are not captured by MOT records. Inspect the tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, verify the operation of the brake system for any binding calipers or uneven disc wear, and feel for play in the front suspension bushes and rear coil springs. Examine the under‑carriage for any signs of corrosion or structural rust, especially around the wheel arches and chassis rails, as these areas can develop issues between tests. Confirm that the paperwork for the March 2026 fail is clarified, ensuring no hidden defects were omitted from the record.
