Our Verdict
This 2022 Ford Focus ST presents a large
When inspecting this Focus ST, examine the service history closely to ensure regular maintenance has kept pace with the above-average mileage of 40,480 miles. Check the condition of all four tyres and alloy wheels, paying particular attention to the front wheels given the previous 2025 advisory for a slightly distorted offside front wheel and worn nearside front tyre. Negotiate if replacement rubber or wheel refurbishment is required before purchase, and verify that all modifications—such as the rear window tint noted in the 2025 test—meet legal and insurance requirements.
As a 2.2-litre petrol performance hatchback, fuel economy will reflect the Focus ST's sporty nature, particularly given the higher-than-average annual mileage accrued so far. Road tax will apply at standard modern petrol rates, and insurance is likely to fall into a higher group due to the performance focus of the engine. Maintenance costs should include allowances for premium tyres and routine servicing to keep the 2261.0cc engine running as intended.
Estimated annual running cost: £2,400-£2,800
Pay close attention to the wheels and tyres, referencing the 2025 MOT test where an offside front road wheel was noted as slightly distorted and the nearside front tyre was worn close to the legal limit. Check the inner and outer sidewalls of all tyres for uneven wear patterns, and inspect the alloy wheels for structural damage or cracking caused by potholes. Additionally, verify the condition of the rear window tint mentioned in the 2025 record to ensure it complies with UK visibility regulations.
First registered in March 2022, this blue petrol-powered Ford Focus ST features a 2261.0cc engine and has covered 40,480 miles across its life. Its recorded MOT history consists of two tests: a pass with advisories in March 2025 at 29,238 miles, and a clean pass in February 2026 at 40,480 miles. The recorded mileage sits above the national model average of 7,089 miles per year, reflecting active use since 2022.
The Ford Focus model range achieves an aggregate MOT pass rate of 89.7%, with road wheel fixings and tyres standing out as top failure reasons.
