2012 Ford Focus Zetec Turbo 1.0L Petrol · MJ12 WMM

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy condition, having demonstrated a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted in December 2025 at 126,124 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a clean result in late 2024. This consistency across the last three successful tests suggests that the vehicle has been maintained sufficiently to meet safety and emissions standards over the last several years. The' pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year over its fourteen-year lifespan. There was a notable period of lower usage or a gap in record-keeping intervals between February 2022 and June 2023, followed by a more rapid accumulation of 15,195 miles between December 2024 and December 2025. This recent increase in mileage indicates the car is being used regularly, which typically accelerates the wear on consumable components such as tyres, brakes, and suspension bushings. While the recent MOT records are clean, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension and braking systems, as the vehicle has surpassed 125,000 miles. Focus on checking for play in the arm bushes and condition of the dampers, which are common areas of wear on the Focus at this mileage. Given the failure recorded in June 2023 at 108,074 miles, ensure that any repairs made at that time were comprehensive and show no signs of recurring issues or structural corrosion.
