2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · FG16 LSV

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 26 June 2024 at 37,425 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, mirroring the previous inspections. This clean history suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the accumulation of mechanical or structural failures during annual testing. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten year-old Ford, averaging approximately 3,700 miles per annum. Between June 2020 at 21,130 miles and June 2024 at 37,425 miles, the car covered only 16,295 miles. This low usage typically results in reduced wear on the drivetrain, engine, and braking components. However, the consistent intervals between tests indicate the car has been used regularly enough to prevent the flat-spotting or fluid degradation often associated with vehicles that sit stationary for long periods. Given the low mileage and clean age, a physical inspection should focus on components that degrade with time rather than distance. A buyer should check for perished rubber elements, such as suspension bushes and control arm mounts, which can crack regardless of miles driven. The brake discs should be examined for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-use vehicles often suffer from rust buildup on the rotors. Additionally, verifying the age of tyres for sidewall cracking is essential, as the low tread depth may mask an rubber compound.
