2009 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · BF09 WUJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 28 February 2026 at 119,729 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable in terms of compliance, though the record reveals a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes. In both 2025 and 2026, the car failed the initial test but was rectified on the same day. This suggests that the owner addresses specific mechanical faults only when prompted by a testing failure rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. At approximately 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 119,729 miles represents an average of roughly 7,043 miles per year, which aligns with typical national averages. The data shows consistent usage over short intervals, with 3,152 miles driven between February 2024 and February 2025, and another 2,488 miles covered between February 2025 and February 2026. This steady but low mileage profile suggests the drivetrain and engine have not been excessively stressed, though the age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of age-related degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most likely to trigger the same-day failures seen in recent years. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and lateral links is essential, as these are common points of failure on this model. Examine the structural integrity of the chassis sills and rear wheel arches for corrosion, as low-mileage older cars often suffer from surface rust and perished rubber despite low mechanical wear.
