2006 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · NG06 YMP

This Ford Focus demonstrates a remarkably consistent record of roadworthiness, characterized by a near-total absence of recorded defects or advisories across its recent history. Aside from a recorded failure on 8 June 2023 which was resolved within twenty-four hours, the vehicle has maintained a clean sheet, with the most recent pass on 9 June 2025 confirming a stable mechanical trend. With a recorded mileage of 166,029 miles, the vehicle has averaged approximately 8,301 miles per year over its twenty-year lifespan. This usage pattern is typical for its age and suggests a steady operational history. Mechanically, this mileage indicates that while the vehicle has remained compliant with safety standards, the primary drivetrain and chassis components have undergone significant long-term wear. Given the absence of specific MOT advisories, the physical inspection should focus on verifying the current state of high-wear items. During a test drive, listen for knocks or clunks from the suspension bushes and coil springs when driving over speed bumps or uneven road surfaces to ensure no degradation has occurred since the last inspection. Evaluate the drivetrain by checking for smooth clutch engagement and the absence of shuddering during acceleration, which can occur in high-mileage examples of this model. A thorough check of the engine bay for oil misting or seepage is also recommended to ensure the mechanical integrity matches the clean DVSA record.
