2024 Ford Focus ST-Line X Mhev Auto Hybrid electric (clean) · K28 TAW

This Ford Focus, tested most recently on 25 June 2025 at 31,665 miles, carries a clean MOT history with no defects or advisories across both tests. The vehicle’s roadworthiness remains stable, with no evidence of recurring mechanical failures or structural concerns during official inspection. The absence of advisories suggests previous owners adhered to basic maintenance, though the high mileage accumulation—particularly the 4,245 miles covered between tests—implies accelerated wear on consumable components. The latest test’s clean pass confirms the vehicle met all current DVSA standards, but the lack of service records means hidden issues could exist. The recorded mileage of 31,665 miles over just 19 months—approximately 15,832 miles annually—is unusually high for a vehicle of this age, exceeding typical low-mileage expectations. This rapid accumulation suggests either intensive use or prolonged periods of neglect between services. The gap between tests, spanning 4,245 miles, aligns with the 12-month MOT cycle but does not account for intermediate servicing, which could have mitigated wear on critical components like suspension bushes, brake calipers, and drivetrain fluids. The absence of a pre-MOT service record raises questions about whether routine maintenance was consistently performed. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear items not covered by the test. Focus on the suspension—particularly rear bushes and coil springs—for signs of excessive play or corrosion, as these are often overlooked until failure. The brakes, though not flagged, warrant scrutiny for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially given the high mileage. Examine the exhaust system for leaks or corrosion, particularly at joints and beneath the vehicle, where rust can compromise structural integrity. Finally, verify the condition of the tyres for uneven tread wear or embedded debris, as failing twice on tread depth in similar vehicles often points to alignment or suspension issues. The absence of advisories does not guarantee these areas are sound.
