2018 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · MK18 ABX

This Ford Focus presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 26 April 2025 at 91,648 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. The absence of advisories across the last three years suggests a vehicle that has been kept in a condition that consistently meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight year old vehicle. Between 1 March 2023 and 4 March 2024, the car covered 17,661 miles, showing a period of heavier use. This slowed slightly in the following year, with 13,103 miles added by the April 2025 test. The overall average of 11,456 miles per year indicates regular operation, which generally prevents the seals and gaskets from drying out compared to low-mileage examples. The record shows no history of structural corrosion, suspension failure, or brake deterioration. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, the lack of recorded defects does not account for preventative maintenance. A buyer should verify the service history for oil changes and filter replacements to ensure the engine has been lubricated according to manufacturer intervals. Given the mileage has now exceeded 90,000 miles, an in-person inspection should focus on typical wear items that do not always trigger an MOT failure. Check the condition of the brake discs for lip wear and inspect the suspension bushes for perishing. A physical check of the tyre tread depths and the health of the battery is advised to ensure the vehicle remains reliable for immediate use.
