2012 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · FP62 ACZ

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend over the last four years. While the most recent test in February 2025 at 123,564 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, the record shows a simultaneous failure on the same day with no listed faults. This anomaly suggests a potential administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately before the retest, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 96,107 miles and July 2024 at 119,021 miles, the car covered roughly 23,000 miles, indicating a steady driving pattern. The subsequent increase of 4,543 miles between July 2024 and February 2025 maintains this consistent interval, suggesting the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods which helps prevent dry seals and brake corrosion. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the MOT history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for this generation of Ford Focus. Examine the front suspension bushes and control arms for signs of rubber tearing, as these often degrade at this mileage before triggering an MOT failure. Check the structural integrity of the sills and rear wheel arches for corrosion, as the record does not proactively flag rust issues until they become significant. Inspect the brake discs for uneven wear or caliper binding to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the actual condition of the braking system.
