2013 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · WN63 VPA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test in September 2025. The maintenance trend appears generally stable, despite a single mechanical failure just one week prior to that pass. At 49,672 miles, the tester flagged a fractured nearside front coil spring, which was evidently rectified to allow the vehicle to pass the re-test at 49,806 miles with no further defects or advisories recorded. The mileage profile reflects exceptionally low usage for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,800 miles per year. Between September 2022 and September 2025, the car covered only 15,313 miles, indicating a consistent pattern of short-distance or infrequent travel. This low mileage suggests that mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components is likely minimal, though it increases the risk of degradation in rubber-based components and corrosion on brake surfaces due to long periods of stationary time rather than mileage-related friction. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension for signs of premature component fatigue. While the fractured coil spring was replaced, the low mileage means the suspension bushes may suffer from age-related dry rot or cracking. Given the infrequent use, it is also vital to check the brake discs for surface pitting and uneven corrosion, as brake calipers often seize when vehicles are not regularly exercised. Verify the age of the tyres for sidew cracking, as low-mileage cars often require new rubber before the tread reaches the legal limit.
