Our Verdict
A recommended purchase for those seeking
Prioritise reviewing the service history to confirm that the coolant leak identified in the October 2023 MOT was professionally repaired. You should also check for invoices relating to the replacement of the nearside front brake discs, which were flagged as worn and pitted in November 2022, to ensure they were not simply cleaned or ignored.
Given the small 999cc engine, ensure the oil change intervals have been strictly followed. Negotiate the price based on the remaining tread depth of the tyres, as tyres are one of the most common failure points for this model according to aggregate data.
The 999cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, typically resulting in lower road tax and insurance premiums compared to larger engine variants of the Focus. Maintenance costs are generally standard for a vehicle of this age, though the small-displacement engine requires consistent servicing to remain efficient.
Annual expenditure will primarily consist of fuel, insurance, and a yearly service. Based on the engine size and vehicle age, the running costs remain competitive for a family hatchback.
Carefully inspect the engine bay for any signs of coolant residue or fresh leaks, specifically referencing the 2023 MOT advisory. Check the condition of the headlamps and tyres, as these are listed as top failure reasons for this model across the wider Ford Focus dataset.
Additionally, perform a visual check of the vehicle's underbody and sills for signs of corrosion. While this specific car has passed its recent tests, corrosion is a known weak point for this model range and should be verified independently of the MOT pass.
This blue 2015 Ford Focus 1.0L petrol has recorded 76,602 miles as of its last MOT in November 2025. The vehicle has a history of five consecutive MOT passes, with the two most recent tests showing no defects. While previous records indicate a coolant leak and brake disc wear, the lack of recent advisories suggests these issues were addressed.
The Ford Focus demonstrates a stable reliability profile with an average MOT pass rate of 79.1% across over one million analysed vehicles.
