2010 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · WN10 ABX

The 2010 Ford Focus presents a consistent maintenance history with a notable lapse in recent testing. In the most recent test conducted in December 2025 at 90,575 miles, the vehicle passed without any recorded defects. This followed a failure in December 2025 at 90,565 miles, where a fault was identified and rectified just ten miles later. The fact that the vehicle passed again immediately following that failure suggests the previous owner was proactive in addressing the specific mechanical issue rather than allowing it to become an unroadworthy condition. At 90,575 miles, the vehicle has averaged approximately 5,660 miles per year over its sixteen-year life. This low mileage often indicates lighter road use but carries specific risks regarding age-related degradation of rubber components such as suspension bushes, split hoses, and perished brake lines. The record shows a steady progression of roughly 2,000 to 2,300 miles between annual tests from 2022 through 2025. This low usage pattern suggests the car may have sat for extended periods, which can lead to brake caliper seizing or fluid corrosion despite the low oometer reading. The inspection history from 2022 to 2024 shows a clean record with no advisories or failures, indicating stability. However, because the vehicle is now sixteen years old, a buyer must physically inspect the structural integrity of the sills and wing arches for corrosion, as these are common failure points for this generation regardless of mileage. The recent failure in late 2025 indicates a specific component required attention, but the immediate subsequent pass confirms the vehicle currently meets the minimum roadworthiness standards for road use.
