2016 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · MV16 ACJ

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT pass dated 5 March 2026 at 102,628 miles with no defects recorded, establishing a sound roadworthiness status four months before today. The maintenance trend reads as stable, given that the only adverse entries are two same-day failures in March 2024 and March 2026 that also listed no defects, pointing to procedural anomalies rather than worsening mechanical condition. Subsequent testing cleared the car without advisory notices. The 2016 Focus shows 102,628 miles over roughly ten years, averaging 10,263 miles annually, which matches typical private use. Recorded distances progressed from 93,009 miles on 8 March 2024 to 98,679 miles on 25 February 2025, then to 102,628 miles on 5 March 2026. That equates to 5,670 miles in the first interval and 3,949 miles in the second, a mild taper in yearly travel. The history contains no gaps beyond thirteen months and zero advisories, suggesting either diligent presentation or light tester scrutiny. No suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, binding calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emission faults appear across the five DVSA tests, so the record exposes no recurring structural or mechanical trends. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection of underbody integrity, steering joints, and tyre sidewalls, as a clean sheet on a high-mileage older car does not guarantee absence of wear unseen during the test. The twin failures with no defects recorded warrant verification of V5C and prior test logs. The repeated fail-pass pairs on 7-8 March 2024 and 5 March 2026 with empty defect boxes imply the previous owners maintained basic mechanical upkeep but occasionally stumbled on administrative compliance. Absence of tyre tread or wiper blade failures further indicates consumables were refreshed ahead of each examination. Overall, the documentary trail portrays a conservatively used Focus with no flagged deterioration.
