2013 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · WN13 ULV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, maintaining a clean pass record over the last three annual cycles. The most recent test conducted on 22 August 2025 at 117,876 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a period of clean passes since a failure in 2022, indicating that the current owner has addressed any necessary repairs and maintained the vehicle to a standard that satisfies MOT requirements without recurring failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. Between August 2024 and August 2025, the car covered 6,607 miles, while the interval between 2023 and 2024 saw 6,744 miles. There are no significant gaps in testing intervals to suggest long periods of neglect. The regular usage suggests the car is being used for typical commuting rather than sitting stationary, which helps prevent component corrosion and brake seizing. While the MOT history is clean, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of common wear points for a Ford Focus of this age. At 117,000 miles, the suspension bushes, coil springs, and drop arms often show signs of fatigue or cracking. The buyer should also check for structural corrosion on the rear sills and wheel arches, as MOT tests only flag rust once it becomes structurally significant. Since the recent tests showed no advisories, verify that the brake discs are not showing excessive lip or pitting and that the tyres have adequate tread beyond the legal minimum.
