2006 Ford Focus 1.8L Petrol · RY56 TWD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having maintained a stable inspection history over the last four years. The most recent MOT test conducted in December 2023 at 115,114 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following several clean passes in previous annual tests. This suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum safety and emission requirements without immediate mechanical or structural failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a 2006 registration, averaging approximately 5,756 miles per year. The data shows a consistent and gradual accumulation of mileage, moving from 92,857 miles in late 2020 to 115,114 miles by late 2023. There are no significant gaps in the testing schedule, though the low annual usage often indicates a vehicle prone to age-related degradation of rubber and plastic components rather than mileage-based wear. Given that the MOT history shows no recurring structural or mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on areas susceptible to time-based decay common in this model. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushings, bushes, and coolant hoses, which can perish and crack irrespective of low mileage. Additionally, checking the chassis for corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is essential, as the MOT record does not capture surface rust until it reaches a structural threshold.
