2011 Ford Focus 1.8L Diesel · SJ60 AEP

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 14 March 2026 at 144,713 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed a test one day prior on 13 March 2026, the record shows no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a clerical error or a minor issue resolved immediately. The mileage is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 9,648 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady over the last three years, rising from 125,767 miles in April 2023 to 144,713 miles in March 2026. There are no erratic jumps or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden degradation. The MOT history is exceptionally clean for a fifteen year old vehicle. No advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions have appeared since 2023. This lack of flagged wear on consumables suggests a disciplined approach to maintenance by the previous owners. A buyer should still perform a physical check for structural corrosion, particularly on the sills and rear subframe, as these areas often degrade without triggering an MOT failure until the damage is severe. Checking the condition of the timing belt and water pump is also essential given the 144,713 mile odometer reading, as these service items are not inspected during a standard MOT test.
