2017 Ford Focus 1.5L Petrol · AF17 UKO

The 2017 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 July 2025 at 52,741 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior passes show no advisories or recorded faults across the history. The brief failure logged on 25 August 2023 at 38,950 miles carries no defects, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle passed on the same day under the same mileage. Recorded mileage sits low for a nine-year-old car at 52,741 miles, averaging roughly 5,860 miles per year. The gap between the 6 May 2022 test at 36,790 miles and the August 2023 tests at 38,950 miles shows only 2,160 miles in fifteen months, pointing to light use or periods of standing. From August 2023 to July 2025 the car covered 13,791 miles, a modest rise that still reflects gentle annual use with no rapid accumulation or neglect-driven high mileage. The clean MOT record gives no flagged items on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody condition and brake component wear, as the low mileage and standing periods can mask perished rubber mounts or surface rust not yet at test-threshold levels. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic pass standard with no deferred consumables reaching advisory status. The absence of recurring faults suggests no worsening mechanical pattern, though the same-day fail and pass in 2023 warrants confirmation that no paperwork anomalies affect provenance.
