Our Verdict
A practical and compliant hatchback that
Pay close attention to the tyre condition. The MOT records from December 2024 and December 2025 both highlight that the nearside and offside front tyres were worn close to the legal limit, suggesting a pattern of wear or deferred replacement. Use this as a point of negotiation to ensure a fresh set of front tyres is fitted before purchase.
Verify the service history for this 999cc engine, ensuring oil changes have been performed at regular intervals. Given the mileage is significantly higher than the model average, check for any evidence of recent major component replacements that would offset the higher usage.
The 1.0L petrol engine is designed for efficiency and meets Euro 6 AG standards, ensuring it remains compatible with UK low-emission zones. Insurance groups for the Focus are generally moderate, and the small engine size helps keep annual road tax costs competitive.
Maintenance costs are typical for a high-volume hatchback, though the MOT history suggests tyres are a frequent expenditure for this specific vehicle. Combined with fuel, tax, and insurance, the annual cost is expected to be moderate.
Prioritise an inspection of the front tyres; the 2024 and 2025 MOT records specifically mention wear on the edges of both the nearside and offside front tyres. Check the current tread depth to see if these were replaced following the last test.
Inspect the braking system, noting the August 2022 failure where front and rear brake pads were found to be wearing thin. Additionally, check the anti-roll bar and headlamps, as aggregate data for the Ford Focus identifies these as common failure points across the model range.
This white 2019 Ford Focus 1.0L petrol has a recorded mileage of 71,725 miles as of its December 2025 MOT. The vehicle's history shows four passes and one failure in 2022 related to worn brake pads. Recent MOT tests in 2024 and 2025 both carried advisories regarding front tyres being worn close to the legal limit.
The Ford Focus has an average MOT pass rate of 79.2%, with tyres, headlamps, and anti-roll bars being the most frequent causes of failure.
