2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · UUI 3046

The 2013 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 7 January 2026 at 127,707 miles which recorded no defects. Prior annual tests on 7 January 2025 at 126,620 miles, 3 January 2024 at 123,552 miles, and 6 January 2023 at 119,126 miles all passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 5 January 2023 at 119,126 miles, reversed the next day with a pass and no defects logged, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault requiring repair. Annual mileage sits at roughly 9,824 miles per year against the 127,707 total, typical for a thirteen-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 4,026 miles added between January 2023 and January 2024, then 3,068, 3,068, and 1,087 miles across the following three years. No standing gaps or sudden spikes appear. The clean sweep of passes with zero advisories across four consecutive years suggests the previous owner kept basic consumables and structural items within test limits, though the absence of flagged wear means underlying condition of bushes, discs, and corrosion was never formally noted. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness, as the MOT history never surfaced advisories that would reveal gradual degradation. At this age and mileage, subframe and sills warrant scrutiny for structural corrosion even though the tester raised no concerns. The brief January 2023 fail with no defect recorded points to a documentation issue rather than mechanical neglect, but verify the V5C and test certificate to confirm the reversal basis before purchase.
