2015 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · CA64 XNK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent test on 17 July 2025 at 96,074 miles, which returned a clean pass with no defects. This follows a period of minor mechanical and electrical issues in 2024. The maintenance trend appears to be improving, as the faults identified during the July 2024 inspection were successfully rectified to achieve a clean result in the subsequent year. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical usage pattern for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 8,734 miles per year, moving from 79,681 miles in July 2022 to 96,074 miles in July 2025. This steady progression suggests regular use rather than long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals often found in low-mileage vehicles. The MOT history indicates specific attention should be paid to the front suspension and tyre condition. In July 2022 at 79,681 miles, the tester flagged worn front tyres and a distorted nearside front inner road wheel. While the 2024 test identified a severely deteriorated offside front suspension arm ball joint dust cover, the clean 2025 result suggests this component was replaced. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes and ball joints to ensure no new deterioration has occurred. Electrical and exterior components also require a quick check. The 2024 failure involving a defective offside rear fog lamp lens and non-functional bulb indicates a previous lack of minor upkeep. Although the 2025 pass suggests these were addressed, verifying the integrity of all light lenses and the functionality of the fog lamp is a prudent step during a physical inspection.
