2006 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · NA56 VXV

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of passes over the last five years. The most recent test on 4 September 2025 at 70,541 miles resulted in only a minor advisory for a deteriorated rear registration plate. This follows four years of clean records from 2021 through 2024, indicating that the vehicle has not suffered significant mechanical failures or structural defects during this documented period. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per annum. Between September 2021 at 60,863 miles and September 2025 at 70,541 miles, the car covered only 9,678 miles. This low-usage pattern suggests the vehicle has likely been used sparingly or stationary for extended periods. However, such low mileage can lead to age-related degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown which are not always captured in a standard MOT inspection. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on components susceptible to perishation rather than wear and tear. While the record shows no history of suspension or brake issues, the low mileage necessitates a check for perished suspension bushes, cracked sidewalls, and seized brake calipers. Inspect the chassis for structural corrosion, particularly along the sills and wing arches, as older Ford Focus models are prone to rust regardless of the distance driven. Ensure all fluids have been replaced according to time intervals rather than mileage to account for the low annual use.
