2007 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · BD07 CGE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test on April 2026 at 130,583 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for an inoperative offside front position lamp. This suggests that the owner addresses minor electrical faults only when necessitated by the MOT test, yet the overall mechanical condition appears relatively stable over the last three years of inspections. At 130,583 miles over 19 years, the car has averaged approximately 6,873 miles per year, which is consistent with low-average usage for a vehicle of this age. The mileage progression shows consistent intervals, with roughly 13,700 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 11,700 miles recorded between 2025 and 2026. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components. A buyer should focus closely on the front suspension and alignment, as the April 2025 test at 118,883 miles flagged both front tyres as worn close to the legal limit and on the edge. This uneven wear often points to worn suspension bushes or incorrect tracking that requires adjustment. Additionally, the 2024 advisory regarding worn front brake discs necessitates a physical inspection of the remaining pad thickness and condition to ensure the calipers are not binding. The absence of structural advisories in the record is positive, but manual check of the chassis for sill corrosion remains essential for a Ford Focus of this era.
