2018 FORD FOCUS1.0L Petrol

The vehicle is currently not roadworthy as the most recent MOT certificate expired on 22 November 2022. The maintenance trend is impossible to establish as a stable pattern because the record shows no technical data for the last four years. While the car passed on 22 November 2021, the lack of any testing between 2022 and July 2026 suggests the vehicle has been dormant or neglected for a significant period. The recorded mileage of 47,607 miles is low for a 2018 model, averaging roughly 5,951 miles per year. However, the data reveals a complete stagnation in usage. The mileage remained identical at 47,607 miles between the failed test on 17 November 2021 and the pass five days later. There are no further entries to indicate if the car has been driven since late 2021. A buyer must prioritise a comprehensive mechanical inspection to identify issues caused by long-term standing. Brake calipers often seize and discs corrode when a vehicle sits idle, which may lead to binding brakes. The tyres should be checked for flat spots and perishing, while the battery and fuel system may have degraded. Particular attention should be paid to the suspension bushes and coil springs, as rubber components can crack and perish without regular movement. Given the four-year gap in official records, the structural integrity of the chassis and underbody must be verified for corrosion. A full service is essential to replace aged oils and filters before the vehicle returns to the road.
