2007 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · CV57 UHM

The 2007 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 March 2025 at 115,034 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date also shows a failed attempt with no defects listed, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in 2024, 2023, and 2022 all passed cleanly with no advisories, confirming the vehicle has avoided recurring workshop attention for at least three consecutive years. Recorded mileage stands at 115,034 against an approximate 19-year lifespan, averaging 6,054 miles per year which is typical for the age. The odometer moved from 91,850 in February 2022 to 94,881 by March 2023, then 103,902 in March 2024, and 115,034 by March 2025. This shows consistent annual use of roughly 9,000 to 11,000 miles in the later period, with no standing gaps or sudden accumulation spikes. The DVSA history is sparse but clean, offering no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and 115,034 miles of service. The MOT record flags no corrosion or exhaust emission concerns, yet nineteen-year-old Ford structural members and subframes commonly degrade unseen behind intact test sheets. Verify the V5C aligns with the 27 March 2025 dual entries and confirm the pass certificate references the correct test station. Given the absence of advisories across five tests, previous owners appear to have maintained basic roadworthiness, but pre-purchase checks on tyre sidewall condition and underbody rust remain prudent.
