2017 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · SF66 ABT

This Ford Focus presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 6 January 2026 at 73,883 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean test results over the last three years, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical UK usage for a nine year old vehicle. The odometer rose from 50,268 miles on 11 January 2024 to 62,821 miles by 7 January 2025, showing an annual increase of roughly 12,500 miles. This pace slowed slightly in the final year, reaching 73,883 miles by January 2026. There are no suspicious mileage gaps or sudden spikes that would indicate periods of neglect or extreme commercial use. The absence of advisories across multiple years is uncommon for a vehicle of this age and suggests a proactive approach to maintenance. The tester flagged no issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion during the recent inspections. Two instances of immediate failure and pass on the same day, specifically on 11 January 2024 and 6 January 2026, typically point to minor administrative errors or trivial defects rectified instantly on site. A buyer should still perform a physical check of common wear items that MOT testers may overlook if they are within legal limits but nearing the end of their life. Focus on the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads. Given the lack of recorded faults, the primary concern is confirming that the service history matches the clean MOT record, ensuring oil changes and filter replacements occurred regardless of the vehicle passing its annual test.
