2011 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · SC11 ACV

The most recent MOT on 18 November 2025 recorded a pass at 171,684 miles, indicating that the vehicle presently meets the minimum legal standards for roadworthiness. Earlier failures in late 2023 and 2024 did not generate any recorded defects, and the latest successful test suggests the issues that prompted those failures have been remedied, leaving the maintenance trend stable. At 171,684 miles the 2011 Focus has accrued roughly 11,400 miles per year, a mileage rate typical for a vehicle of its age. The progression from 162,857 miles in November 2023 to 168,866 miles a year later, then to 171,684 miles in November 2025, shows a steady increase of about 6,000 miles per annum with no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The record contains no gaps that would suggest extended storage or unusually rapid mileage accumulation. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the braking system and suspension components, as these areas often generate MOT failures on a Focus of this generation. Inspect the front and rear brake discs for scoring, check caliper operation for any binding, and verify that the suspension bushes and coil springs are free of excessive play or corrosion. Examine the wheel arches and under‑body for rust, especially around the wheel wells and chassis brackets, and confirm tyre tread depth and uniform wear. A thorough visual and functional check of these items will confirm whether the vehicle’s condition aligns with the clean MOT history.
