2007 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · LT07 UMB

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-02-19 at 59,787 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2025-02-18 (54,685 miles) and 2024-02-19 (51,644 miles) also passed without issues, though a duplicate entry for 2024-02-19 shows a failure with no defects listed. This inconsistency may reflect administrative error, but the absence of recorded faults in the valid tests suggests the car has remained mechanically sound. No advisories or critical failures are noted in the history, supporting the conclusion of a reliable recent maintenance record. The vehicle’s mileage of 59,787 miles over 19 years equates to approximately 3,147 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage could indicate infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which might affect components like the battery, tyres, and fluid systems. The MOT intervals align with standard annual testing, and the consistent mileage progression from 49,716 miles (2023-02-18) to 59,787 miles (2026-02-19) shows no abrupt spikes or gaps, suggesting steady, controlled use. However, the lack of high-mileage wear indicators in the record does not confirm the vehicle’s condition beyond the tested components. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for aged bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask wear in these areas. The absence of brake-related defects is positive, but checking for corrosion on brake discs and binding calipers remains prudent. Structural integrity should be assessed for rust, particularly in areas prone to corrosion like sills or underbody panels, as the vehicle’s age and usage pattern could exacerbate such issues. The failed MOT entry without details warrants verification, though the subsequent passes imply any prior issues were resolved. Overall, the record reflects a well-maintained vehicle, but physical inspection is essential to confirm the absence of hidden faults.
