2004 Ford Focus C-MAX 2.0L Diesel · KP54 RYY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 16 November 2021 at 169,377 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean result suggests that the vehicle was maintained to a standard that prevented immediate mechanical or safety-related failures at the time of the last official inspection. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between October 2017 and November 2021, the car covered 32,721 miles, showing a steady usage pattern without significant periods of neglect or excessive mileage. However, there is a critical gap in the record as the vehicle has not undergone a tested MOT since late 2021. As of June 2026, this lapse means the current state of the braking components, emissions, and structural integrity cannot be verified through historical data alone. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the final test, a physical inspection must focus on the common failure points of a 22-year-old Focus C-Max. A buyer should specifically examine the structural integrity of the rear wheel arches and sills for corrosion, as rust often develops undetected between tests. The suspension system requires a check for perished bushes and signs of fatigue in the coil springs, as these components degrade over time regardless of mileage. Additionally, because the last test was five years ago, a thorough check for binding calipers and thinning brake discs is essential to ensure the vehicle remains safe for road use.
