2008 Ford Focus 1.8L Petrol · BK08 HHF

This vehicle presents a stable mechanical profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 21 October 2025 at 115,956 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed a test on 7 October 2025, the record lists no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a minor administrative or quick-fix issue that was resolved within two weeks. The mileage pattern is consistent and typical for a 2008 model. The vehicle covered 2,874 miles between October 2023 and October 2024, and a further 2,874 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. This steady accumulation indicates regular, light use rather than periods of prolonged standing, which generally helps maintain rubber components and prevents seals from drying out. The absence of advisories across the last four years is unusual for a vehicle of this age. Typically, a Ford Focus from 2008 would show notes regarding suspension bushes, coil spring corrosion, or brake disc pitting by 115,000 miles. The lack of any recorded defects since October 2022 suggests either a very high standard of preventative maintenance or a lenient testing regime. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and rear wheel arches, as these are common failure points for this chassis that may not always be flagged if the rust is superficial. Check the condition of the brake pads and tyre tread depths manually, as the clean MOT record provides no data on how close these consumables are to their legal limits.
