2016 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · YP16 LRZ

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, though the record reveals a pattern of reactive maintenance rather than proactive care. The most recent test on 28 January 2025 at 86,637 miles passed, but it flagged a damaged windscreen and front tyres reaching the legal limit. While the car has avoided major structural or mechanical failures, the recurring presence of consumable defects suggests the previous owners only addressed faults once they reached the point of failure. The mileage progression is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,600 miles per year. Between November 2020 at 52,987 miles and January 2025 at 86,637 miles, the car covered 33,650 miles, showing a steady usage pattern without significant gaps. The 2023 and 2022 tests show a consistent interval of roughly 5,000 miles every 12 months, which is sufficient to prevent the rapid degradation of rubber components despite the overall age. A buyer should pay close attention to the suspension and alignment, as the history shows a persistent trend of tyres worn on the edges across multiple tests in 2020, 2021, and 2025. This specific wear pattern often indicates worn suspension bushes or incorrect tracking geometry that has not been rectified. The physical inspection of the rear braking system is also necessary, as the record does not explicitly clear binding calipers or disc corrosion despite the age of the vehicle. Given the age of this Ford Focus, checking the chassis for structural rust around the sills and wheel arches is essential to ensure the integrity of the frame has not begun to fail.
