2020 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · LL20 CVO

The vehicle's current roadworthiness status is satisfactory, having passed the most recent MOT test on 2026-05-22 at 59,367 miles, albeit with some advisories. However, the maintenance trend appears to be worsening, given the increasing number of advisories and a recent failure on 2026-05-20, primarily due to tyre-related issues. The tester flagged damaged or cracking tyres on both the nearside and offside rear, as well as tyres worn close to or below the legal limit on the front axle. The mileage pattern of this 2020 Ford Focus suggests typical usage, with roughly 9,894 miles per year. There are no notable gaps in the mileage data, and the accumulation appears steady, with the most significant jump between 2025-06-07 and 2026-05-22, where the mileage increased by approximately 9,354 miles. The MOT history is relatively clean, with no major structural or mechanical issues reported, aside from the recurring tyre problems and a single instance of an inoperative engine MIL in 2023. The recurring faults in the MOT history suggest that a buyer should pay close attention to the vehicle's tyres, inspecting them for any signs of damage, cracking, or uneven wear. The suspension and brakes should also be examined, as these components can be affected by uneven tyre wear. Additionally, the engine management system should be checked to ensure the MIL is functioning correctly, given the previous malfunction reported in 2023. A visual inspection of the rear registration plate is also recommended, as it was reported to be deteriorated in 2023, although it was not considered a major issue at the time. The advisories on the nearside and offside rear tyres, which were slightly damaged or cracking, should be addressed by the buyer, as these can lead to more significant problems if left unattended. The buyer should also verify that the engine MIL is operational and that there are no other underlying issues that may have contributed to the previous malfunction. Overall, while the vehicle's current roadworthiness status is satisfactory, a thorough inspection and review of the MOT history are essential to ensure the buyer is aware of any potential issues that may arise in the future.
