2007 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · KA57 JFK

The most recent 2025‑06‑26 test recorded a PASS, yet the same mileage entry also lists an oil leak, tyres worn on the edge, suspension arm pins and bushes showing wear, front brake pads at the limit and a defective rear‑box exhaust mounting, indicating a marginal pass that masks ongoing deficiencies; the pattern of repeated failures in 2024 and earlier years shows a stable but deteriorating trend rather than improvement. The mileage has risen steadily from 52,734 miles in March 2017 to 109,962 miles in June 2025, averaging roughly 5,800 miles per year with no evident long‑term storage gaps; the two tests conducted on the same day at identical mileage suggest a re‑test rather than a period of inactivity, confirming continuous use. A buyer should inspect the front suspension components—arm pins, bushes and ball joints—for excessive play or looseness, examine the front brake discs and pads for wear, pitting or scoring, and verify tyre tread depth on all corners, as the record repeatedly notes tyres worn close to the legal limit; the defective rear‑box exhaust mounting and persistent oil leak, though not excessive, merit close scrutiny for potential structural or engine‑related issues.
