FORD FOCUS2016 · 1.0L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in March 2026 at 49,292 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record consistently highlights minor consumable issues rather than mechanical or structural failures. While the 2024 and 2025 tests showed no defects, the most recent entry identified tyre-related concerns that suggest a need for continued attention to rubber components. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,900 miles per year. The data progression from 30,811 miles in February 2022 to 49,292 miles in March 2026 shows consistent, low-intensity usage rather than long periods of abandonment. This pattern typically means less wear on drivetrain and engine components, but it often correlates with the degradation of rubber-based parts due to age as seen in the advisory history. A buyer should focus specifically on the condition of the tyres, as the record shows a recurring pattern of perishing and damage from 2022 through 2026. The 2026 test flagged a cut on the nearside rear tyre and cracking on the nearside front, which are typical of low-mileage cars that age out their rubber. Additionally, the distorted nearside front inner wheel noted in 2023 indicates a past impact that warrants a physical check to ensure there is no lingering alignment issues or suspension geometry damage.
