2006 Ford Focus Sport 1.8L Other · KEZ 8922

The most recent MOT test on 6 October 2023 resulted in a pass at 120,428 miles with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle was roadworthy at that time. However, this test is now nearly three years old, leaving the current condition unverified. The maintenance trend appears stable based on the clean pass, but the preceding failures on 7 September 2023 and 27 March 2023 also recorded no defects, which is unusual and suggests either minor issues resolved before retesting or incomplete record entries. This pattern does not point to worsening mechanical problems, but the lack of defect details limits a full trend assessment. The mileage history contains a clear anomaly. The odometer read 99,303 miles on 1 March 2022, then dropped to 10,035 miles on 31 March 2022 before climbing to 115,095 miles on 27 March 2023. This jump of over 100,000 miles in one year is physically implausible and likely stems from a data entry error or odometer inconsistency. Excluding that discrepancy, the recorded 120,428 miles at the last test gives an annual average of roughly 6,000 miles over 20 years, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. The irregular readings, however, undermine confidence in the mileage accuracy and require clarification from service records. With no recurring defects in the MOT history, the vehicle has no flagged structural or mechanical risks from past tests. Nonetheless, a 20-year-old Ford Focus with over 120,000 miles will have accumulated wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components. A buyer should arrange an independent inspection focused on the condition of the wishbone bushes, anti-roll bar links, and brake discs for scoring or binding calipers. The underbody and sills should be checked for corrosion, a common issue on this model. The anomalous mileage readings demand a thorough review of the service history and previous ownership to ensure the odometer reading is genuine.
