2016 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · YN16 GPU

The vehicle remains in a generally roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 28 August 2025 at 103,504 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for low headlight aim on both the nearside and offside lamps. This indicates a simple adjustment issue rather than a mechanical failure, and the car has maintained a clean record with no recorded advisories for the preceding three years. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,350 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 61,128 miles and August 2025 at 103,504 miles, the car covered 42,376 miles, representing a steady usage pattern of roughly 14,000 miles annually during that period. This regularity suggests the vehicle has been used consistently, which helps prevent internal corrosion and seal degradation from standing. While the MOT history appears clean, a buyer should perform a physical inspection focusing on components prone to wear at the 100,000-mile mark. The 2022 test noted a deteriorated rear registration plate, which warrants a check for general environmental weathering on plastics and trim. Given the mileage, close inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components is necessary, as these items are not always flagged by the tester until they reach a state of significant failure.
