2017 FORD FOCUS2.3L Petrol

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 10 February 2026 at 52,311 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. This suggests that the previous owners have maintained a regime where safety-critical components, including braking systems, lighting, and structural integrity, remain within operational tolerances. The mileage profile is low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. Between March 2022 at 30,647 miles and February 2026 at 52,311 miles, the car covered 21,664 miles, indicating consistent but low-intensity usage. This low mileage typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. However, the low usage can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods between tests. Despite the clean record, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to age and low-mileage operation. The buyer should check for signs of perished suspension bushes or split rubber boots, which can become brittle over time regardless of distance driven. Because the mileage is relatively low, the brake discs should be inspected for surface corrosion or pitting if the car has not been used frequently. Additionally, verifying the age of the tyres and checking for minor sidewall cracking is necessary, as rubber often outlives before the tread depth reaches legal limits on low-use vehicles.
