2017 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · H11 KBT

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptional roadworthiness trend, characterized by a consistent record of clean passes. The most recent test on 3 March 2026 at 56,637 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a four-year pattern of first-time passes without a single advisory, suggesting a highly stable mechanical condition. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a nine-year-old vehicle. Between the March 2022 test at 42,337 miles and the March 2026 test at 56,637 miles, the car covered 14,300 miles. This averages roughly 3,575 miles per year over the last four years, indicating light to moderate usage. The lack of sudden mileage spikes or long periods of dormancy suggests a regular driving cycle, which generally benefits engine health and prevents seals from perishing. The absence of any flagged defects across five consecutive tests is rare. The tester recorded no issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions, nor were there any mentions of corrosion or structural integrity concerns. This implies a rigorous approach to preventative maintenance by the previous owner, as even consumable items like tyres and wiper blades failed to trigger an advisory. A physical inspection should still focus on standard wear items that MOT testers may overlook if they remain within legal limits. Check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads to determine when the next service interval falls. Verify the service history book to ensure the oil and filters were changed regularly, as the MOT record confirms legal roadworthiness but does not document internal engine maintenance.
