FORD FOCUS ST-LINE TDCI2018 · 1.5L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a remarkably clean maintenance history. The most recent test conducted on 18 May 2026 at 95,224 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded, mirroring the perfect results of the previous three years. This consistent trend of zero defects suggests the previous owner has proactively addressed mechanical and structural issues before they could result in an MOT failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight-year-old diesel, averaging approximately 12,000 miles annually. Between May 2022 at 49,998 miles and May 2024 at 74,559 miles, the car covered over 24,000 miles, showing a steady rate of use. The more recent interval of 20,665 miles between the 2024 and 2026 tests indicates the vehicle remains regularly driven and has not been subjected to long periods of stationary-related degradation. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a buyer must focus on high-wear components typical for vehicles nearing the 100,000-mile mark. Inspection should target the suspension system, specifically checking for worn bushes or leaking dampers which often degrade at this mileage despite clean tests. Given the mileage, verifying the condition of the brake discs for thinning and checking for any caliper binding is essential, as the MOT only tests for efficiency rather than overall component life.
