2021 Ford Focus 1.5L Petrol · BX21 AWP

This 2021 Ford Focus has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects recorded in either of its most recent tests, most recently passing on 25 June 2025 at 32,705 miles. The absence of advisories or failings across both tests suggests a stable maintenance pattern, though the 11-month gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests—despite minimal mileage accumulation—implies the vehicle was likely stationary for an extended period. The latest test was conducted just over a year ago, meaning the current roadworthiness status is not verified beyond that point. No recurring issues have been flagged, but the lack of intermediate servicing records means potential wear on non-MOT-tested components cannot be confirmed. The recorded mileage of 32,705 miles over five years aligns with typical usage patterns for this model, averaging around 6,500 miles annually. There are no abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps in the MOT history to suggest aggressive driving or neglect, though the vehicle appears to have been off the road for several months between the July 2024 and June 2025 tests, during which it accumulated only 11,259 miles. This period of inactivity could have allowed minor corrosion or suspension degradation to develop if the vehicle was not stored properly, particularly in exposed conditions. A buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components, including coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers, given the vehicle’s age and the extended stationary period. The brakes—particularly rear calipers and discs—should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as the MOT does not test for subtle performance issues. Tyre condition warrants scrutiny, especially if the vehicle was stored without rotation or balancing, as uneven wear could indicate alignment drift. Structural integrity, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should also be examined for corrosion, as prolonged inactivity can accelerate rust formation in vulnerable areas. While the MOT record suggests no immediate mechanical failures, these areas are critical for long-term reliability.
