2012 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · FN62 HFJ

The 2012 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 June 2025 at 108,602 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 21 May 2024 at 102,384 miles confirms the vehicle entered its fourteenth year free of flagged advisories or failures. Recorded mileage sits at 108,602 against a 14-year lifespan, equating to roughly 7,757 miles per year, which is typical for the age. The DVSA data shows steady annual accumulation: 94,200 miles on 20 May 2022, 98,301 on 22 May 2023, 102,384 on 21 May 2024, and 108,602 on 26 June 2025. The gap between the May 2024 and June 2025 tests is slightly wider than twelve months but unremarkable. Notably, the 21 May 2024 entry lists both a fail and a pass at identical mileage with no defects recorded, implying an administrative reversal rather than a mechanical fault. The history is sparse and clean across all five entries. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and subframe corrosion, as the MOT record omits advisories that often surface on a 14-year-old Focus. The absence of flagged wear does not certify component condition, merely that the tester found nothing reportable on the days listed. Given the clean trajectory and ordinary mileage, previous keepers appear to have maintained statutory testing discipline without neglect signals such as repeated tyre or emission failures. Physical verification of structural integrity and consumable items remains prudent before purchase.
