Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers prioritizing low mileage, but inspect brake condition and service history to confirm maintenance standards.
Prioritize checking the brake system for signs of uneven wear or replacement history, as front and rear pad wear was noted in 2024. Review service records for scheduled maintenance (e.g., oil changes, brake fluid checks) to confirm consistent care. Negotiate based on the 2024 brake repairs, and be cautious of potential hidden costs if the vehicle has been stored rather than regularly driven. Insist on a pre-purchase inspection for suspension components and exhaust system corrosion.
The 1.5L petrol engine offers decent fuel economy, with typical combined consumption around 40-45 mpg. As a 2015 model, it falls in BIK tax band 14 (£1,650/yr for 2025/26) and likely insurance group 15-18. Brake pad replacements (approx. £150-200 per axle) and routine servicing ( £300-400/yr) are expected. Estimated annual running costs: £800-£1,000 including tax, insurance, and basic maintenance.
Focus on brake components for uneven wear or replacement history, particularly the front and rear pads noted in 2024. Check suspension bushes and shock absorbers for dry rot or leaks, common in 2015 models. Inspect the exhaust system for rust, as corrosion can develop in UK conditions. Verify the engine oil level and condition to confirm regular maintenance, and check tire tread depth for uneven wear patterns indicative of alignment issues.
This 2015 Ford Focus has a clean MOT history with only minor brake pad wear recorded in 2024. At 36,810 miles, the mileage is below average for its age, suggesting potential infrequent use. The 1.5L petrol engine is reliable, but absence of model-wide reliability data means buyers should verify this vehicle's specific maintenance record.
No aggregate MOT data available for the Ford Focus, so reliability must be assessed on an individual vehicle basis.
