2009 Ford Focus 2.5L Petrol · EA59 AAK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following a period of intermittent failures. The most recent test on November 4 2025 at 84,534 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that previous mechanical or safety concerns have been successfully addressed. While the history shows failures in 2023 and 2024, the subsequent clean passes suggest the current owner is proactive in rectifying identified issues identified by the tester. The mileage profile is notably low for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. Between November 2023 and October 2024, the car covered 4,635 miles, which aligns perfectly with its long-term average usage pattern. This low annual mileage typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine internal components, though long periods of standing or low use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown. A buyer should conduct a close physical inspection of the suspension and braking system to account for the failures in 2023 and 2024. Although the specific technical reasons for those failures are not detailed in the summary, vehicles of this age often suffer from perished suspension bushes, seized brake calipers, or corroded exhaust sections. Given the age, check for structural integrity issues specifically around the sills and the rear coil springs, as low mileage does not protect a vehicle from environmental corrosion of the chassis over two decades.
