2009 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · GJ09 PZC

The roadworthiness of this vehicle is highly concerning following a critical structural failure in the most recent test. While the car passed its MOT in May 2026 at 99,172 miles, this followed a failure on the same day where the nearside front body structure was found inadequately repaired, significantly reducing structural rigidity. This indication suggests a major compromise to the 차량's integrity that necessitates a professional structural survey, irrespective of the subsequent pass certificate. The vehicle has covered 99,172 miles over 17 years, averaging approximately 5,834 miles per year. While this low annual mileage suggests limited use, the data shows a significant period of rapid mileage accumulation between April 2024 and May 2025, where over 11,000 miles were clocked in just thirteen months. This spike, combined with the high frequency of mechanical defects, points to a history of reactive maintenance where multiple components were allowed to reach a state of failure simultaneously. A physical inspection must prioritize the repair work on the nearside front wing area to ensure it meets safety standards and is not merely cosmetic. The history reveals a pattern of neglected wear items, including recurring issues with anti-roll bars, exhaust mountings, and brake pads. A buyer should specifically inspect the suspension for deep corrosion, as the anti-roll bar was previously flagged as corroded, and check the gearbox for the reported oil leak noted in 2025.
