2007 Ford Focus 2.5L Petrol · FH57 DMU

The vehicle is currently in a stable roadworthy condition. The most recent MOT on 23 April 2025 at 110,699 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a brief failure on 14 April 2025, though the record lacks specific defect data for that failure, suggesting the issues were minor and rectified within nine days. The mileage is notably low for a nineteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,826 miles per year. Between April 2022 and April 2025, the odometer rose from 106,960 to 110,699 miles. This represents a very low annual usage of approximately 1,200 miles over the last three years. Such low activity often indicates a vehicle used for short trips or one that has spent significant periods stationary. A clean MOT history over the last five years suggests a consistent level of basic maintenance. No recurring issues with suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs appear in the records. The absence of advisories regarding corrosion or structural integrity is positive for a car of this vintage, as Ford Focus models from 2007 are often prone to chassis rust. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade during periods of inactivity. Check for perishing rubber seals, flat spots on tyres, and potential seizing of brake calipers. Given the low recent mileage, verifying the condition of the battery and checking for fluid leaks caused by seal shrinkage is advisable.
