2017 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · EO17 ONW

The most recent MOT on 4 March 2026 was a clean pass at 97,883 miles with no recorded defects, indicating the vehicle was road‑legal at the time of testing. A recurring issue is the front tyre tread condition. In August 2022 and February 2025 the MOT notes the off‑side/front tyre was worn close to the legal limit, with edge wear on the inner side. The same tyre was flagged again in 2025, suggesting the front tyres are approaching the end of their service life and may be prone to uneven wear. No other faults have been recorded, and the MOTs between 2023 and 2024 were clean, so the overall defect trend appears stable rather than deteriorating. At roughly 10,800 miles per year, the 97,883 mile total for a 2017 model is typical for its age. It does not point to extreme hard use, but it also does not indicate long periods of inactivity. Expect normal wear on consumables such as brakes, suspension bushings and drivetrain components. For a buyer, the first inspection should focus on the front tyres: check tread depth, sidewall condition and whether the wear pattern is still uneven. While you are there, also look at the overall tyre set, wheel alignment, and inspect the brakes and suspension for any signs of premature wear that could be linked to the tyre issue.
