2017 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · C6 TCY

This 2017 Ford Focus has a current MOT that passed in February 2026, but the history reveals a worrying decline in condition over the last few years. The primary risk pattern is the rear suspension. Issues with the rear suspension arm pins and bushes have been noted since early 2024. While these were minor advisories initially, they progressed to a failure in February 2026 due to excessive wear on the nearside. This indicates a worsening trend where mechanical wear is accelerating rather than being proactively maintained. The vehicle's mileage of 85,481 is typical for its age, suggesting regular use. However, the February 2026 failure highlighted significant tyre neglect, with three tyres worn to the legal limit and one having a deep cut. This suggests a lack of basic maintenance and a disregard for safety in the period leading up to the most recent test. While the car is currently roadworthy, the transition from clean passes to multiple failures across tyres, plates, and suspension suggests a decline in ownership care. A buyer should first inspect the condition and brand of the recently replaced tyres to ensure they are of a decent quality.
