2015 Ford Focus 2.0L Petrol · AA02 ALV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT test in October 2025 at 76,250 miles which resulted in no recorded defects. This indicates that the mechanical and safety issues identified in previous years were addressed. The overall trend shows improvement, moving from a test with advisories in 2024 to a clean sheet in the latest annual inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year over its eleven-year life. Between September 2021 at 42,444 miles and October 2025 at 76,250 miles, the car covered 33,806 miles, suggesting steady and predictable usage. This low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it often increases the likelihood of rubber-based components perishing due to age rather than distance. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyres. The 2024 test at 67,290 miles flagged pitted and scored rear brake discs along with perishing on both rear tyres. While the 2025 test passed without issues, the buyer must verify that the brake discs were actually replaced and that the current tyres do not show signs of sidewall cracking. Given the age of the vehicle, a close check of the suspension bushes and rubber mounts is also advisable, as these components are prone to degradation over time on low-mileage cars.
