FORD FOCUS2015 · 2.0L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 2 June 2026 at 47,565 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a failure in October 2025. While previous tests indicated recurring issues with wear and tear, the two consecutive clean passes suggest that the owner has addressed identified faults and is currently maintaining the vehicle to a standard operating level. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 47,565 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 4,324 miles. The usage pattern appears consistent over the last years, with roughly 5,500 miles driven between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests. This low mileage typically suggests less mechanical strain on the engine and drivetrain components, though it increases the likelihood of rubber-based components and suspension bushes becoming brittle due to age and periods of potentially or inactivity. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the braking system and tyres, as these were the recurring faults. The October 2023 and 2024 tests flagged both rear brake pads as wearing thin, and front tyres were noted as being near the legal limit with uneven wear. While these were likely replaced, the buyer should verify the current pad thickness and check for alignment issues that cause edge tyre wear. Additionally, the failure in 2025 due to a structural tear in the nearside rear tyre highlights the need to inspect the remaining tyres for sidewall damage or dry rot, which is common on low-mileage vehicles of this age.
