2020 Ford Focus Titanium Edition Mhev 1.0L Petrol · F8 CDH

The vehicle presents as mechanically roadworthy with a recent MOT pass dated 15 December 2025 at 10,281 miles. The most current test identified minor tyre deterioration, specifically cracking or perishing on the offside rear and front tyres, which falls within acceptable limits under 5.2.3(d)(ii). No major safety concerns were recorded during this inspection, indicating that the vehicle meets current statutory requirements for road use. The mileage progression shows a consistent pattern of low annual usage, averaging approximately 1,714 miles per year over six years. The MOT history reveals a sparse but clear sequence of tests at 4,972 miles in December 2023, followed by 7,671 miles in November 2024, and culminating in 10,281 miles in December 2025. There are no significant gaps in testing, suggesting regular attention to the vehicle’s condition. However, the low mileage may indicate extended periods of inactivity rather than frequent driving, which could affect component longevity. Recurring issues relate primarily to brake disc wear and tyre condition. In December 2023, the rear brake disc was noted as worn, pitted or scored but not seriously weakened, with slight corrosion present. This condition reappeared in November 2024 with similar findings. These observations suggest potential neglect in brake maintenance or prolonged use without adequate servicing. The tyre degradation noted in the latest test indicates exposure to environmental factors or lack of rotation and replacement schedules. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough visual inspection of the rear brake assemblies for continued signs of wear or corrosion. Tyre condition warrants close examination for uneven tread wear or structural damage. Suspension components, particularly the rear axle, should be checked for bushing deterioration or spring fatigue. Structural integrity of the chassis and body panels should also be reviewed for any signs of rust or damage that may have developed during periods of limited use.
