2008 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · EX58 MXV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the clean result of its most recent inspection. The MOT test conducted in February 2023 at 110,166 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a failure just six days prior at nearly the same mileage. This suggests that the previous owner was proactive in addressing immediate mechanical requirements to meet testing standards, and the vehicle has maintained aので-free status across the latest successful tests. The mileage pattern is consistent with low-to-moderate annual usage, averaging out approximately 6,120 miles per year. The data shows a steady progression of 7,567 miles between February 2021 and February 2022, and another 5,312 miles between February 2022 and February 2023. This consistent accumulation indicates regular use, which often helps prevent the degradation of seals and braking components, though the age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of rubber-related perish and surface corrosion irrespective of the distance driven. While the history lacks recorded advisories or failures, a buyer must focus on the structural integrity of the chassis and suspension components during a physical inspection. Given the 18-year age of this Ford Focus, particular attention should be paid to corrosion on the sills, wing way points, and rear floor pans. The buyer should also verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common areas of wear on this model that do not always trigger an MOT failure until they reach a critical state of decay.
