2017 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · EK17 DYV

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection on 4 September 2025 at 71,584 miles recorded no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This streak of perfect results suggests the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety concerns before they could result in a failure during the testing process. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. Between the December 2021 test at 45,530 miles and the September 2025 test, the car covered 26,054 miles, reflecting a regular usage profile. There are no signs of long stationary periods or sudden spikes in mileage that often lead to component settling or accelerated degradation of rubber components. The relatively low mileage relative to the vehicle age suggests that the drivetrain and suspension have likely not been subjected to excessive stress compared to higher-mileage counterparts. While the digital record shows no recurring faults, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of common wear points for a Focus of this era. Given the lack of advisories regarding corrosion, the structural integrity of the sills and subframe should be verified for surface rust that might have missed. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking, as these components often age around 70,000 miles. The clean MOT history suggests the braking system is well-maintained, but checking the thickness of the pads and the condition of the discs remains necessary to ensure no immediate expenditure is required.
