2016 Ford Focus 2.0L Diesel · GC16 NYP

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 11 August 2025 at 60,820 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have successfully maintained the vehicle to passing standards without triggering mechanical failures. The absence of recurring advisory notes over the last five years suggests that major mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable tolerances during annual testing. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, showing a steady average of approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between the July 2021 test at 40,152 miles and the August 2025 test at 60,820 miles, the car covered 20,668 miles. This low-intensity usage typically results in reduced wear on drivetrain components such as the clutch, gearbox, and suspension bushings. The regular intervals between tests also suggest the car is used regularly rather than sitting stationary for extended periods. While the MOT record is exemplary, a buyer should still focus their physical inspection on components prone to age-related degradation regardless of low mileage. Given the vehicle's age, check the rubber components for cracking, particularly suspension arm bushes and engine mounts, which can become brittle over time despite low use. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage cars sometimes suffer from oxidation on the rotors. The clean history suggests these are merely preventative checks rather than reactive for repairs.
