2009 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · CK59 MVL

The vehicle holds a valid MOT until 2026-08-05, with the most recent test on 2025-08-05 at 118,159 miles showing no defects. Maintenance records indicate a stable condition over the past five years, with no recurring mechanical failures or advisories. The 2022 dual entry at 93,191 miles—one pass and one failure—suggests a minor, isolated issue resolved without lasting impact, as subsequent tests show consistent compliance. Mileage accumulation aligns with the vehicle’s age, averaging approximately 6,951 miles annually. From 2022 to 2025, mileage increased steadily: 93,191 miles in August 2022, 100,088 miles by August 2023 (+6,897 miles), 105,845 miles in August 2024 (+5,757 miles), and 118,159 miles in August 2025 (+12,314 miles). The sharper rise between 2024 and 2025 may reflect increased usage or a recent change in driving habits, but no gaps or abrupt jumps indicate neglect or odometer tampering. No structural or mechanical advisories appear in the MOT history, implying that critical components like brakes, suspension, and exhaust systems were consistently within acceptable limits. However, the absence of advisories does not guarantee flawless condition; wear on consumables (e.g., brake discs, suspension bushes) or hidden corrosion could still exist. Buyers should prioritize inspecting the rear brake calipers for binding, as the 2022 failure might hint at past issues with lubrication or adjustment. Additionally, check for uneven tyre wear or corrosion around suspension mounting points, which could indicate prolonged stress or exposure to road salt. A test drive to assess brake responsiveness, suspension integrity, and exhaust leaks would provide further insight. Given the vehicle’s age and mileage, verifying the condition of coil springs, shock absorbers, and wheel bearings is advisable, as these components degrade over time even with moderate use. While the MOT record suggests diligent maintenance, a hands-on evaluation remains essential to uncover latent issues.
