Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking a modern, low-mileage hatchback. While there was a tyre-related issue in late 2024, the overall MOT history remains relatively clean.
When viewing this specific Blue ST-Line, check the condition of all four tyres. The 2024 MOT record flagged both nearside and offside front tyres as being worn close to the legal limit, so ensure any replacements are recent and of good quality.
Given the 2025 MOT note regarding the child seat, you should manually inspect the adult seatbelt tension and locking mechanism to ensure it is fully functional, as the tester could not verify this. Ask the seller for any service records to complement the MOT data, particularly regarding the mild-hybrid (MHEV) system components.
The 999cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing this vehicle in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to larger capacity Focus models. Fuel economy should be competitive for a petrol hatchback of this size.
Maintenance costs for the Focus range are generally predictable, though you should budget for regular tyre replacements as seen in the 2024 MOT history. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, are expected to be moderate.
Focus on the tyres and wheel alignment. The 2024 MOT failure for tyres being 'worn on edge' can sometimes indicate alignment issues or suspension wear, so check for uneven tread patterns on the front axle.
Additionally, inspect the electronic parking brake and brake discs. While this specific vehicle has not had failures in these areas, they are listed as top MOT failure reasons for this model across the 5,118 vehicles analysed in our database.
This 2020 Ford Focus ST-Line Edition MHEV has covered 29,829 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 8,344 miles per year. The MOT history shows two passes since its first registration, with one instance of tyre wear being noted in December 2024. The most recent test in December 2025 was a pass, though it was noted that a child seat prevented a full inspection of the adult belt.
Aggregate data from over 5,000 vehicles shows an 89.6% MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to tyres, brake discs, and electronic parking brakes.
