2016 Ford Focus 2.3L Petrol · RF05 CUS

This Ford Focus demonstrates a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT on 2 September 2025 at 7,205 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2021, indicating a vehicle that has remained in a high state of mechanical compliance throughout its recorded history. The mileage is remarkably low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 720 miles per year. Between 18 October 2021 and 2 September 2025, the odometer increased by only 4,614 miles. Such low usage suggests the car has spent significant periods stationary. While the lack of mechanical wear is a positive, long-term standing often introduces specific risks that MOT tests may not immediately highlight. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Check for perished rubber seals, cracked tyres, and potential seizing of brake calipers or sliders due to inactivity. The absence of any recorded advisories regarding corrosion or suspension bushes is encouraging, but the low-use profile necessitates a close look at the brake fluid condition and the battery's health. Verify that the engine oil has been changed at regular intervals despite the low mileage. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from moisture buildup and oil sludge if they only perform short trips. Confirming a service history that contradicts the low mileage will ensure the internal engine components have been properly lubricated.
