2006 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · KJ56 FLE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT test on April 7, 2025, at 113,236 miles with no recorded defects or advisories. This clean result follows a failure just five days prior at 112,719 miles, which suggests a minor administrative or easily rectified issue was addressed immediately. The lack of advisories in the last two successful tests indicates that the vehicle currently meets the minimum safety standards without immediate signs of escalating mechanical degradation. At approximately twenty years old, the recorded mileage of 113,236 miles represents an annual average of roughly 5,662 miles. This is significantly lower than the national average for a Ford Focus, which typically correlates with less wear on the drivetrain and engine engine internals. The data shows consistent usage patterns between March 2023 and April 2025, where the car covered roughly 18,000 miles over two-year period. However, low-mileage vehicles of this era often suffer from dry-rot components or the degradation of rubber-based parts due to age rather than mechanical friction. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and the condition of the suspension components, as these older Focus models are prone to corrosion in the rear subframe and mounting points. While the MOT record shows no advisories, the low mileage suggests that suspension bushes and tyres may have perished over time despite the limited use. Given the vehicle's age, verify the brake fluid condition and check for any binding calipers, as long periods of standing can lead to internal corrosion within the braking system that a standard MOT might not fully expose.
