2017 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · BK67 XGE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift towards minor reactive repairs. The most recent test in December 2025 at 65,045 miles resulted in failures for a defective offside rear position lamp and a nearside front tyre worn to the legal limit with edge wear. While these are consumable issues rather than fundamental mechanical failures, they indicate a lack of pre-test inspection compared to the previous years. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use domestic vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. There is a significant gap in records between August 2022 at 26,483 miles and September 2024 at 51,806 miles, where the car covered over 25,000 miles in two years. Prior to this period, the vehicle remained very low mileage, covering only about five thousand miles annually between 2020 and 2022, suggesting the structural and mechanical components have been under minimal stress during those early years of life. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension geometry and alignment, as the edge wear noted on the nearside front tyre in late 2025 often indicates camber issues or worn suspension bushes. Given the long period of low mileage followed by a busier interval, check for brake caliper sticking or seized sliders which can occur when a vehicle sits stationary. The history shows no structural corrosion or exhaust failures, suggesting the chassis remains sound, but the recent lighting and tyre faults a need for more attention to basic upkeep.
