2012 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · GF12 ADV

The Ford Focus presents a currently valid MOT pass dated 14 March 2026 at 115,875 miles, following a same-day failure entry that recorded no defects. This pattern repeats the 6 March 2024 failure with no defects and subsequent pass two days later. The maintenance trend is stable, with every ultimate test result clearing without mechanical or structural faults logged. No worsening or recurring defect trajectory appears in the official record. Mileage progression aligns with typical use for a 14-year-old vehicle. The record shows 100,394 miles on 8 March 2024, rising to 109,014 miles by 11 March 2025 and 115,875 miles by 14 March 2026. That equates to roughly 8,600 and 6,900 miles per annum, reflecting consistent moderate annual coverage. The history is sparse, offering only spring tests each year, yet it remains clean of advisories or consumable wear flags throughout. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-sensitive components despite the unblemished MOT ledger. The tester never flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs or corrosion, but a 2012 chassis at 115,875 miles may harbour fatigued rubber mounts, minor underbody rust, or worn brake calipers not yet at failure threshold. Examine exhaust emissions integrity and structural members for hidden decay. Previous ownership appears to have maintained statutory testing punctually, though the anomalous fail entries without defects suggest administrative re-tests rather than neglected repairs. The lack of any recorded tyre, wiper or lighting issues implies either diligent pre-test preparation or cursory recording.
