Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers seeking a low-mil
Given the very low annual mileage, it is essential to verify the service history to ensure the engine oil and filters were changed at regular intervals regardless of distance. Check for any evidence of perished rubber components, which can occur when a vehicle spends long periods stationary.
Negotiate based on the current condition of the registration plates, as the December 2025 MOT noted deterioration. While the failures recorded in 2023 and 2024 were minor, ensure all exterior lighting is now functioning correctly.
The 1.6L petrol engine provides a balance of performance and economy typical for a 2010 hatchback. Insurance groups for this model are generally moderate, and road tax is based on the CO2 emissions of this specific engine variant.
Maintenance costs are typically low due to the widespread availability of parts for the Focus. However, budget for the replacement of common wear items such as tyres and anti-roll bar links, which are frequent failure points for this model.
Inspect the front registration plates for the deterioration mentioned in the 2025 MOT. Check the operation of the windscreen wipers and the functionality of all position lamps and indicators, referencing the failures recorded in 2023 and 2024.
Based on aggregate model data, pay close attention to the condition of the tyres and the anti-roll bar, as these are among the top reasons for MOT failures across the Focus range. A physical check of the suspension components is advised.
This blue 2010 Ford Focus has covered 55,252 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average. The MOT history reveals a pattern of minor failures related to lighting and wipers, but no structural or major mechanical defects are recorded. It presents as a low-use example of the 1.6L petrol variant.
The Ford Focus has an average MOT pass rate of 79.2%, with common failures typically involving tyres, headlamps, and anti-roll bars.
