Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking lo
When inspecting this 1.0L petrol Focus, pay close age-related attention to the tyres. The 2025 MOT noted cracking or perishing on three separate tyres, and the 2022 test flagged a worn edge on the offside front. Ensure any replacement tyres are of a reputable brand and have sufficient tread depth.
Given the low mileage, check that the vehicle has been serviced regularly to prevent issues common in vehicles that spend a lot of time stationary. Ask for evidence of oil changes, as the 999cc engine requires consistent maintenance. Negotiate on the cost of any immediate tyre replacements if the current set shows signs of perishing.
The 999cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing it in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to larger displacement models. Fuel economy should be competitive for a hatchback of this size.
Typical maintenance for this model involves standard consumables like tyres, brakes, and oil. While the model aggregate data shows tyres as a top failure reason, the overall running costs should be manageable. Expect annual running costs to be moderate, depending heavily on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Focus specifically on the tyres; the MOT history shows a pattern of issues ranging from edge wear in 2022 to cracking/perishing in 2025. Check the sidewalls for any signs of age-related deterioration or damage.
Additionally, while no mechanical failures were recorded in the recent MOTs, the aggregate data for this model highlights headlamps and anti-roll bars as common failure points. It is worth checking that the headlamp lenses are clear and that there is no excessive play in the suspension when driving over uneven surfaces.
This 2015 grey Ford Focus has covered 38,311 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 6,826 miles per year. The MOT history shows five tests since 2022, with three passes recording no defects. However, recent records indicate issues with tyre condition and wear.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 79.2% MOT pass rate, with tyres, headlamps, and anti-roll bars being the most frequent reasons for failure.
