2007 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · DA56 LTF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted on 12 August 2025 at 125,548 miles returned no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure occurred in late July 2023 at 115,984 miles, the immediate pass upon retest suggests the owner was proactive in addressing the identified faults rather than letting mechanical or structural issues persist. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,600 miles per annum. Between August 2022 and August 2025, the car covered 14,273 miles, representing a steady usage rate of roughly 4,700 miles per year. This low annual mileage typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine components compared to high-mileage examples of the same era. The regularity of the MOT testing at annual intervals suggests the vehicle has been in regular use rather than sitting stationary for long periods of neglect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common failure points for this generation of Ford Focus, specifically the rear suspension geometry and structural integrity. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for significant corrosion on the sills and subframe is essential as these areas are prone to structural thinning. Although the recent records are clean, the low mileage means that rubber components and bushings may perish or crack regardless of distance travelled. Inspect the brake discs for signs of pitting and check the tyres for uneven wear to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the current mechanical state of all consumables.
