AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2016 Ford Focus shows a fully roadworthy status as confirmed by the 26 August 2025 MOT test at 58,731 miles, which recorded no defects and sits within eleven months of the current evaluation date. The maintenance trend remains stable across five successive annual examinations, with the tester passing the car without advisories each time from September 2021 onward. Mileage advanced from 40,347 miles at the 2 September 2021 test to 54,525 miles by 2 September 2024, then to 58,731 miles at the final recorded test. This equates to roughly 4,600 miles added per year, below the approximate 5,873 miles per annum expected for a ten-year-old vehicle. The owner maintained continuous annual testing with no gaps, suggesting disciplined statutory compliance and light domestic use. No recurring mechanical or structural faults appear in the DVSA data, so the history reveals no worsening corrosion, binding calipers, or worn suspension components. A clean sheet across exhaust emissions, brakes, and structural integrity implies previous owners addressed consumables before each test. Still, the buyer should inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs in person for latent wear not surfaced during a short MOT drive. Low mileage and likely prolonged standing can conceal tyre perishing, wiper blade degradation, and surface rust on sills or subframes. The tester flagged none of these, yet an independent mechanical inspection remains warranted to verify real-world condition beyond the pass certificates.
