2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · FH16 WDU

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT in November 2025 with 111,945 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable pattern, as the car consistently clears testing following minor interventions. The lack of recorded defects in the passed 2024 and 2025 tests suggests that any previous failures were related to easily rectified items or minor adjustments that were addressed immediately prior to re-test, rather than persistent mechanical or structural failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical annual usage for a decade-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,200 miles per year. Between October 2023 at 88,007 miles and October 2024 at 103,515 miles, the car covered over 15,000 miles, indicating a period of higher use. The subsequent interval of roughly 8,400 miles leading to November 2025 shows more moderate usage, which generally helps prevent engine seals from drying out and avoids the corrosion often associated with long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the suspension components and braking system, as these are common areas of wear for a Focus of this age. While the MOT record shows no current defects, the high mileage of 111,945 miles suggests that suspension bushes and coil springs may be nearing the end of their service life. Check for signs of thinning brake discs or uneven tyre wear, and inspect the chassis for any structural corrosion around the sills and subframes, as ten-year-old vehicles are susceptible to effects from road salt and moisture.
