2011 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · SH11 YFE

The vehicle holds a valid MOT until November 2026 following a pass in November 2025, though the tester recorded a nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit with uneven inner and outer edge wear, alongside general surface corrosion on underside components. The maintenance trend appears stable with no recurring major failures, but the noted tyre wear pattern and persistent corrosion advisories warrant attention as potential developing issues rather than resolved one-off defects. Mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for the vehicle’s age, averaging approximately 6,400 miles annually over the recorded period from November 2022 to November 2025. There are no significant gaps in testing or evidence of unusually high or low yearly usage that would suggest periods of neglect or excessive strain. The recorded mileages at each test date show a steady, predictable increase. A buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of the front suspension and steering geometry to diagnose the cause of the uneven front tyre wear noted in the latest test. The rear shock absorbers exhibited light oil misting in the 2022 test; while not failed, this can precede failure and should be checked for active leaks or deterioration. Furthermore, the underside corrosion flagged in both 2022 and 2025, specifically around the rear suspension mounting prescribed area, requires careful examination for any progression that might compromise structural integrity. Finally, verify the windscreen washer system and the offside rear direction indicator are fully functional, as these were the specific reasons for the 2023 failure.
