FORD FOCUS2018 · 1.0L Petrol

The 2018 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 October 2025 at 89,103 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a failed attempt on the same date and mileage where the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in September 2024 at 76,526 miles, September 2023 at 62,510 miles, and July 2022 at 45,312 miles all passed cleanly with no advisories, showing consistent annual compliance and no escalating mechanical concerns. Recorded mileage tracks typical use for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 11,138 miles per year. The car covered 17,214 miles between the July 2022 and September 2024 tests, then 12,577 miles to September 2025, a steady accumulation with no standing periods or abrupt spikes. The DVSA history is sparse on faults, with every entry either clean or a no-defect failure, so the record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not confirm component life remaining. The same-date fail and pass in October 2025 warrant a check of the VRM and test certificate to confirm the entry was clerical. No corrosion, exhaust emissions breaches, or binding calipers appear in the data, but underbody structural integrity should be verified visually given the vehicle is now beyond major manufacturer warranty.
