2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · LL63 FNX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of operation over the last several years. The most recent MOT conducted in July 2025 at 113,205 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and environmental standards. Following a brief failure in October 2022, the subsequent two annual tests returned zero advisories, suggesting that the previous owners were proactive in addressing mechanical requirements before they escalated. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. Between October 2021 and July 2024, the car covered 17,263 miles, which represents a steady and predictable workload. The two-year gap between the 2022 and 2024 tests shows a period of lower usage, but the lack of recorded defects or advisories during this period indicates that the vehicle has not been subjected to high-intensity stress that typically leads to premature suspension or drivetrain failures. Given the clean nature of the recent records, a physical inspection should focus on age-related wear common to the Ford Focus of this era. While the MOT history does not flag recurring faults, the buyer should manually check for corrosion on the rear subframe and sills, as these areas often degrade over time regardless of mileage. Examining the rubber suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking is also advisable, as these components can perish over thirteen years before a MOT failure occurs. The absence of brake advisories suggests the system is well-maintained, but the physical condition of the discs and pads should be verified to ensure they are not thinning prematurely.
