2015 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · MF15 VAA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs rather than preventative care. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 104,681 miles passed, it revealed new defects regarding worn front brake discs and thin inner brake pads. This indicates that the owner is only addressing mechanical components once they approach the point of failure, following a period of clean records in late 2023 and late 2024. The mileage accumulation is consistent with an eleven-year-old Ford Focus, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per annum. Between the November 2023 test at 85,816 miles and the November 2024 test at 95,903 miles, the car covered roughly 10,000 miles, representing steady annual use. The subsequent interval of nearly 9,000 miles leading to the 2025 test fits within this predictable usage pattern for a family vehicle of this age. A buyer must scrutinise the tyres and monitoring systems, as the history shows a recurring pattern of tyre damage. The vehicle failed in 2023 and 2024 due to structural bulges and cuts in the tyres, and the 2025 test flagged multiple new cuts on both rear tyres. The TPMS light has also been a persistent issue across three separate tests, suggesting a faulty sensor or a system fault that requires diagnostic attention to ensure the warning functions correctly. Physical inspection should also focus on the front braking system, as the 2025 record confirms thin inner pads and worn discs. Given the mileage has exceeded 100,000 miles, the buyer should check for wear on suspension bushes and coil springs, which are common failure points on this model. While no structural corrosion was noted in the records, the frequent tyre-related failures suggest the vehicle may have been driven on harsh conditions or neglected regarding basic safety checks.
