2011 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · OV11 AEJ

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a recent successful MOT test on 30 September 2025 at 119,367 miles. While the record shows a failure on 26 September 2025 at 119,364 miles, the lack of recorded defects for that failure suggests a minor non-mechanical issue or a clerical error that was resolved within four days. Since the 2022 test, the vehicle has maintained a consistent passing record without any recorded advisories for structural corrosion, suspension components, or braking systems. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,958 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 100,076 miles in October 2022 to the current 119,367 miles. This steady usage pattern suggests the car has been driven regularly rather than sitting idle for long periods, which generally helps prevent seized calipers or perished rubber bushings. Because the MOT history is exceptionally clean with no recorded advisories for suspension bushes, coil springs, or exhaust emissions, the records imply a high standard of upkeep. However, the recent failure and subsequent pass at high mileage means a buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underbody. Focus specifically on the rear axle assembly and subframe for any signs of surface corrosion that may not have reached a failure threshold during the last test. A physical check of the brake discs for uneven wear and an inspection of the tyre tread depth is also recommended. While the electronic record shows no issues, the 119,367 mileage figure indicates the vehicle is entering a stage where consumables like shock absorbers and control arm bushings may require replacement regardless of their current MOT status.
