2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · FD62 ADO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 15 July 2025 resulted in a pass at 166,313 miles. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of recorded defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The car has covered 166,313 miles over 13 years, averaging roughly 12,793 miles per year. This is high usage for a Ford Focus of this vintage. The mileage accumulation has remained consistent over the last four years, growing from 127,836 miles in July 2022 to 166,313 miles in July 2025. This steady increase indicates the vehicle has been in constant use rather than sitting idle. The MOT history is unusually clean for a high-mileage vehicle. There are no recorded advisories or failures regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc wear across the last four tests. Such a void of data is rare for a car with over 160,000 miles and suggests either an exceptional maintenance regime or a tester who has been lenient with minor wear. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components. High-mileage vehicles often suffer from structural corrosion and worn bushings that may not always trigger an MOT failure but affect handling. Check for oil leaks around the engine and gearbox and verify the service history to ensure the timing belt and water pump have been replaced in line with manufacturer intervals.
