2008 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · AB08 HGU

The 2008 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 7 May 2025 at 115,468 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the three years of available history, with each annual test ultimately ending in a pass. The record shows no advisories or worn components flagged at any stage, which suggests the vehicle has been kept to a basic testable standard. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for an eighteen year old car, averaging roughly 6,415 miles per year. The odometer moved from 105,547 miles at the 22 May 2023 test to 111,156 miles by 9 May 2024, then to 115,468 miles by 7 May 2025. That equates to around 5,600 to 6,000 miles annually, with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps. The sparse three year record gives limited insight, but the clean sheets imply no major consumable neglect was logged by testers. The failed tests on 6 May 2025 and 9 May 2024 both closed with no defects recorded, pointing to administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical faults. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and the absence of any advisory data in the official record. The clean MOT history offers no evidence of recurring structural or mechanical risk, yet eighteen years of use warrants a physical check of chassis integrity and exhaust condition before purchase.
