2011 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · FG61 WMU

The 2011 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 14 October 2025 at 74,456 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recent record. The most recent test showed no defects, though three days earlier on 11 October 2025 at 74,439 miles the vehicle failed with no defects formally recorded, a pattern repeated on 21 February 2024 at 67,009 miles where a fail preceded a same-day pass, also with no defects logged. Such outcomes typically reflect administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical fault, and no advisories or worn components appear anywhere in the history. Recorded mileage stands at 74,456 against an age of roughly fifteen years, equating to about 4,964 miles per year and marking the car as low-use for its cohort. The gaps between tests show light accumulation: 67,009 miles in February 2024 rose to 68,706 by October 2024, then to 74,456 by October 2025. The sparse, clean record gives little evidence of heavy drivetrain or suspension cycling, though prolonged standing implied by low annual mileage can permit corrosion or perished rubber on suspension bushes and brake hoses that a short test may not expose. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT entries list no advisories yet offer no detail on chassis condition. The brake discs, calipers, and coil springs warrant hands-on checks for binding or fatigue given the car's age and periods of disuse. Verify the reason for the two zero-defect failures with the issuing DVSA stations, since the record alone does not explain them.
