FORD FOCUS2002 · 1.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted on 18 March 2026 resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, mirroring the clean results from the 2025 and 2024 tests. This suggests that the mechanical and safety components are currently being maintained to a standard that avoids immediate failure under the DVSA testing criteria. Mileage data indicates a moderate usage pattern for a vehicle of this age. Between 22 February 2023 and 22 April 2024, the car covered 5,124 miles, moving from 117,351 to 122,475 miles. This represents an average annual mileage of approximately 5,000 miles, which is relatively low for a twenty-four-year-old Ford. While mileage for the 2025 and 2026 tests is missing, the lack of rapid accumulation suggests no high-intensity operation. The failure recorded on 22 February 2023 at 117,351 miles remains the only point of concern in the history, though the specific reason for failure was not detailed in the provided data. Given the age of the vehicle, a buyer should focus their in-person inspection on common Focus weakness points of this generation. This includes a thorough check for structural integrity, specifically corrosion on the sills, floor pans, and rear suspension mounting points. Additionally, inspecting the condition of suspension bushes and caliper seals is essential, as these components often degrade before triggering a formal MOT failure.
