Our Verdict
A cautious recommendation for buyers. Wh
Prioritise a thorough check of the service history, specifically looking for evidence of regular oil changes which are critical for the 1.0L engine variant. Given the MOT history, you should verify that the front suspension repairs were carried out by a reputable garage using quality parts, as this area has been a point of failure twice in the last two years.
Negotiate the price based on the vehicle's age and the fact that it has exceeded the average annual mileage for this model. Ensure all lighting is fully operational, as a position lamp failure was previously recorded.
The 998cc engine is designed for economy, which typically translates to lower annual road tax and a modest insurance group. However, the maintenance costs for this specific vehicle may be higher than average due to the evident wear on suspension components.
Expect typical costs for fuel, insurance, and annual servicing. Given the mileage and age, a budget for wear-and-tear items like tyres and brakes should be maintained.
Focus your inspection on the front suspension. The MOT records show a fractured offside front coil spring (March 2025) and failures of both nearside and offside front suspension arm ball joint dust covers (March 2026). Ensure there is no current play in the joints and that the covers are intact.
Additionally, check the tyres for uneven wear, which can be a symptom of the suspension issues noted in the history. Finally, verify that all external bulbs are functioning, referencing the previous position lamp failure.
This blue 2013 Ford Focus, powered by a 998cc petrol engine, has reached 101,368 miles. The MOT history shows a trend of front-end wear, specifically a fractured coil spring in 2025 and ball joint dust cover failures in 2026. It most recently passed its MOT on 20th March 2026 with no defects recorded.
The Ford Focus has a respectable average MOT pass rate of 79.2%, with common failures typically involving tyres, headlamps, and anti-roll bars.
