2019 Ford Focus ST Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · FG69 NUK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a worsening trend regarding front end geometry. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 73,240 miles passed, the tester flagged advisories for both front tyres being near the legal limit and showing edge wear. This follows a pattern established in September 2024 where the front inner tyres suffered from wear and sidewall damage, suggesting a persistent neglect of monitoring consumable rubber components. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,500 miles per year. The record shows steady usage with a jump of 9,000 miles between August 2023 and September 2024, and another 16,000 miles between September 2024 and April 2026. This linear progression suggests the car has been used regularly rather than left stationary for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the mechanical seals and batteries, though it places the expected load on the suspension and braking systems. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and wheel alignment. The recurring reports of edge wear and a previously distorted offside front road wheel in 2024 point toward potential issues with worn control arm bushes or an incorrect tracking setting. You should check for uneven tyre wear across the tread and monitor for vibrations during a test drive, as the history indicates the previous owner has not addressed the underlying geometric faults beyond simple tyre replacement.
