FORD FOCUS2006 · 2.5L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in November 2025 with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears remarkably stable, as the car has secured three consecutive clean passes over the last two years. While there was a single failure in late 2023, the issue was rectified immediately to achieve a subsequent pass, suggesting a proactive approach to necessary repairs when faults actually arise. The mileage pattern is notably low for a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,215 miles per year. There is a visible gap in usage between December 2022 and December 2023, where the car covered only about 2,365 miles, followed by more consistent use of roughly 2,000 miles per year in the most recent two cycles. This low annual mileage suggests the car may have sat for extended periods, which often results in less wear on the engine and drivetrain components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade due to age and sitting rather than just high mileage. Given the vehicle's age, it is essential to check for brittleness or cracking in rubber bushings, hoses, and suspension components, which can become unreliable despite low use. Additionally, the car should be inspected for structural rust on the chassis and corrosion on brake lines, as these are common failure points for this generation of Focus regardless of the distance driven.
