2018 FORD FOCUS1.5L Diesel

This Ford Focus presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of mechanical health. The most recent test on 4 June 2025 at 50,880 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the history shows two failures on the same days as the passes in June 2025 and December 2023, the lack of recorded defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues rectified immediately during the appointment. The mileage is consistent with typical usage for an eight year old vehicle. It covered 8,093 miles between June 2024 and June 2025, which is a slight increase compared to the 1,950 miles added between December 2023 and June 2024. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest commercial use or prolonged periods of standing, which helps reduce the risk of perished seals or flat-spotted tyres. The absence of any advisories across the last three years is unusual for a vehicle of this age. No mentions of corrosion, worn suspension bushes, or thinning brake discs appear in the record. This suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance or a very light duty cycle. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the brake pads and tyre tread depths, as these consumables are not always flagged until they reach the legal limit. Checking for underbody corrosion remains a priority given the age of the chassis, despite the clean MOT history. Focus on the condition of the coil springs and steering rack to ensure no wear has developed since the June 2025 inspection.
