2021 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · KN71 XCC

This 2021 Ford Focus presents an exemplary MOT record with a stable and improving maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 March 2026 at 48,496 miles returned a clean pass with zero defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of three consecutive flawless MOTs, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard with no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The mileage accumulation is remarkably steady and typical for a five-year-old vehicle. Between the March 2025 test at 45,282 miles and the March 2026 test at 48,496 miles, the car covered 3,214 miles in twelve months. The prior interval from April 2024 at 42,815 miles to March 2025 at 45,282 miles shows 2,467 miles over approximately eleven months. This equates to roughly 9,700 miles per year, well within normal usage. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in mileage accumulation that would suggest the vehicle has been standing idle or subjected to unusually harsh use. The MOT history is entirely clean, with no advisories or failures recorded across all three tests. This is a strong indicator that consumable components such as tyres, brake pads, and suspension bushes have been kept in acceptable condition without neglect. The absence of any corrosion-related advisories across successive tests suggests the underbody and structural elements have not deteriorated. Despite the clean paperwork, a buyer should still conduct a thorough in-person inspection. Check the condition of the tyres for uneven wear that could hint at alignment or suspension geometry issues not yet flagged. Inspect the brake discs and pads for lipping or scoring, and assess the exhaust system for any early signs of corrosion that may develop between test intervals. Examine the suspension components, including drop links and anti-roll bar bushes, for play or deterioration. A test drive over varied surfaces will reveal any emerging rattles or handling inconsistencies that a static MOT inspection might not capture.
