2017 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · CE17 VFC

The most recent MOT on 21 August 2025 at 59 487 miles recorded a Pass with no defects, confirming the vehicle is presently roadworthy. Annual results from 2020 through 2025 show a stable trend, as no recurring failures have appeared and the only advisory items have been resolved in subsequent tests. Mileage has risen from 24 673 miles in March 2020 to 59 487 miles in August 2025, averaging roughly 6 600 miles per year for a nine‑year‑old model. The jump of 10 281 miles between the September 2023 (38 979 miles) and August 2024 (49 154 miles) tests reflects a period of higher use, yet the overall accumulation remains typical for its age and does not suggest excessive wear. Tyre wear has been flagged repeatedly: the March 2021 test noted front and rear tyres close to the legal limit and early cracking, while the September 2023 test highlighted front tyres worn on the inner edge. Prospective buyers should therefore inspect all four tyres for tread depth, sidewall integrity, and uniform wear, and verify that the current set meets legal requirements. The March 2021 advisory of general surface rust on suspension and chassis warrants a visual check of suspension bushes, coil springs, and any corrosion on mounting points; any significant rust could indicate long‑term exposure. Although brakes have not been recorded as defective, the pattern of tyre edge wear may hint at alignment or suspension issues, so a test drive should include assessment of brake response and any signs of binding or uneven braking.
