2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · FM16 KXT

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance history. The most recent test conducted on 3 February 2026 at 21,368 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and emissions standards. This streak of clean passes over the last five years suggests a vehicle that has been well-maintained and lacks recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a decade-old Ford, averaging approximately 2,137 miles per year. Between July 2022 and July 2024, the car covered only 998 miles, suggesting long periods of stationary or very light use. A significant spike in usage occurred between July 2024 and July 2025, where the vehicle clocked 12,949 miles in a single year. Despite this burst of activity, the total mileage remains well below the national average for a 2016 registration, which generally correlates with less mechanical wear and tear on the engine and suspension components. While the records show no recorded faults, a buyer must physically inspect for issues affected by low-mileage storage. Checking for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes, tyres, and wiper blades, is essential as these materials age regardless of distance driven. The buyer should also examine brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs when a vehicle sits for extended periods. Given the clean MOT history, the primary risks are related to age-related fluids and seals rather than mechanical fatigue.
