2016 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · NJ16 ABU

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent test conducted on 26 March 2025 at 114,064 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This follows a consistent streak of clean passes since 2020, indicating that the vehicle has maintained its structural integrity and safety standards without recurring mechanical failures or significant degradation. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,400 miles per annum. Between March 2020 at 53,946 miles and March 2022 at 80,980 miles, the car covered 27,034 miles, showing a steady pattern of use. Since the 2024 test, the vehicle has covered roughly 11,000 miles, which aligns perfectly with the historical usage profile and suggests the car is used regularly, which often helps prevent the mechanical issues associated with long periods of standing stationary. While the MOT history is largely pristine, a buyer should still inspect specific components prone to high-mileage wear. The 2019 failure for thin front brake pads at 35,758 miles is the only recorded fault, but given that the vehicle has now surpassed 114,000 miles, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs is necessary. The buyer should also check for signs of corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system, as these are the most common points of failure for this model as it ages, despite a clean MOT record.
