2016 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · YC16 YSZ

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on March 18 2026 at 102,294 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows significant improvement, as the car has transitioned from recurring failures in previous years to clean passes in the last two tests. This suggests that the current owner is proactive in rectifying mechanical faults to ensure the vehicle meets minimum legal standards. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,200 miles per year. Data shows a notable increase of 10,373 miles between January 2024 and March 2025, followed by another 15,310 miles between March 2025 and March 2026. This recent usage pattern indicates regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals, gaskets, and brake components that tend to seize if neglected. While the most recent records are clear, the failures in January 2024 and March 2025 indicate that the vehicle has previously required attention for specific wear items. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension system, specifically checking for perished bushes or worn springs, as these are common points of failure on this model at this mileage. Examining the brake assembly for signs of uneven wear or binding calipers is also prudent given the previous failures suggest the braking system has reached maintenance thresholds in the past.
