2012 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · LR62 CPX

This vehicle presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 12 August 2025 at 68,630 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to November 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has suffered very little mechanical degradation. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2012 model, averaging roughly 4,902 miles per year. Between November 2021 and September 2023, the car covered only 785 miles, suggesting a period of prolonged inactivity. More recent usage has increased, with 5,474 miles added between September 2023 and August 2024, and a further 3,155 miles by August 2025. This shift from standing to regular use is a positive sign for the engine and drivetrain. While the MOT history is devoid of advisories, the low overall mileage and the period of inactivity necessitate specific physical checks. A buyer should inspect the tyres for age-related cracking or flat spots, even if the tread remains legal. Brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs when a vehicle sits idle for extended periods. The absence of flagged issues regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion is encouraging for a car of this age. However, the lack of recorded defects over four years may mask a lack of preventative maintenance. A physical inspection should verify the condition of the engine oil and coolant to ensure the vehicle was not neglected during its low-use years.
