2009 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · LV09 HKP

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status following a clean pass in its most recent inspection. The test conducted in November 2025 at 145,583 miles showed no recorded defects, indicating that the immediate mechanical and safety requirements are being met. While the history shows intermittent failures just prior to passes, the trend suggests that the current or previous owner is proactive in addressing identified faults to ensure the vehicle passes its annual testing. At 145,583 miles over 17 years, the Focus has averaged approximately 8,564 miles per year, which aligns closely with typical national averages for a vehicle of this age. The mileage data shows consistent usage, with roughly 8,000 miles covered between November 2023 and November 2024, and another 8,000 miles between November 2024 and November 2025. This regular interval suggests regular operation rather than long periods of stationary storage, which generally benefits the health of engine seals and braking components. The recorded failures in November 2023 and November 2024 indicate specific issues that required rectification shortly before the successful tests. Although the specific defect descriptions are not provided in this summary, the recurring nature of failures at these intervals often points to wear-and-tear items or emission components. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the structural integrity, specifically checking for chassis corrosion, as these are common points of failure for Focus models of this era. Close attention to the suspension bushes and the condition of the brake discs will ensure that the recent passes have not masked any underlying mechanical degradation.
