2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · RE63 PKZ

This vehicle maintains a valid MOT status following a clean pass in November 2025 at 92,006 miles. The certificate remains valid until November 2026, confirming the car is legally compliant for immediate road use. The result aligns with the previous successful inspection from November 2024, indicating a stable maintenance trajectory over the last two years. There are no recorded failures or dangerous defects in the official DVSA log for this period, suggesting the primary mechanical systems remain within legal limits. The absence of advisories in the most recent test further supports that critical components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust emissions have not degraded significantly since the last assessment. Usage patterns show consistent annual testing with mileage accumulation averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year throughout the recorded history. The gap between the 2021 and 2025 records covers four years with a total increase of just over 18,000 miles, reflecting moderate usage rather than excessive strain. No significant gaps appear in the service timeline, as tests occurred consistently every November from 2021 through 2025. This regularity implies the owner prioritised statutory compliance, reducing the likelihood of neglected servicing intervals affecting engine health or fluid levels. Buyers should verify the functionality of the rear nearside seatbelt during a physical inspection, noting the recurring advisory regarding child seat obstruction seen in 2022 and 2023. While these entries did not constitute a failure, they highlight a potential access issue that warrants manual confirmation of the buckle mechanism and retractor operation. Given the vehicle age and mileage, attention must also focus on structural integrity around the wheel arches and underbody for corrosion common to this model. A thorough check of suspension mounting points and brake caliper slides will confirm whether the clean MOT history translates to genuine mechanical soundness beyond surface-level compliance.
