2011 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · SH60 AEB

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 14 January 2026 at 88,508 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the previous three years, suggesting a vehicle that has been kept in a state of immediate compliance. The mileage is notably low for a 2011 model, averaging roughly 5,901 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained consistent, with 2,988 miles added between January 2024 and January 2025, and 3,059 miles added between January 2025 and January 2026. This steady usage suggests the car has not suffered from prolonged periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber seals. The absence of any advisories or failures since January 2023 is unusual for a fifteen year old Ford Focus. While the record is technically flawless, a buyer should still physically inspect the chassis and suspension mounting points for corrosion, as surface rust does not always trigger an MOT failure until it compromises structural integrity. Check the condition of the tyres and brake discs for age-related cracking or pitting. Low-mileage vehicles often run consumables beyond their recommended lifespan because the tread remains legal despite the rubber hardening over time. Verify that the engine oil and coolant show no signs of contamination, ensuring the low mileage is matched by a regular service interval regardless of the distance driven.
