2021 Ford Focus ST 2.3L Petrol · AF21 OXA

The 2021 Ford Focus ST presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent DVSA test on 2 March 2026 at 55,233 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clear results across the available history. Annual mileage has tracked close to typical use for a five-year-old car. The tester logged 33,311 miles on 19 March 2024, 42,275 miles on 20 March 2025, and 55,233 miles on 2 March 2026. That equates to roughly 9,000 to 13,000 miles per year with no standing gaps or sudden accumulation spikes. The three consecutive passes with zero advisories indicate the previous keeper kept on top of consumables and mechanical wear rather than deferring basic upkeep. With no advisories or failures on file, the record shows no recurring trends in suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion. A clean MOT trail at this age usually reflects careful ownership, though it does not confirm the condition of components the test did not flag. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection before purchase. Check the front suspension strut tops and rear axle bushes for early fatigue, inspect brake calipers for any signs of sticking, and confirm underside corrosion protection on the sills and subframes. Verify service history matches the low advisory count, as the MOT alone cannot evidence cambelt, fluid, or clutch condition on this ST variant.
