2018 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · ND18 BZB

The vehicle is currently not roadworthy for public road use; the most recent MOT on 23 April 2025 at 55 041 miles recorded a clean pass with no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, as every annual test since December 2021 has returned a pass, indicating consistent care and no emerging mechanical issues. Mileage accumulation shows a distinct pattern: between 14 977 miles (14 December 2021) and 14 990 miles (25 April 2022) only 13 miles were logged, suggesting a period of low usage or storage. From April 2022 onward the mileage climbs roughly 13–14 k per year, with a notable jump of 14 191 miles between the April 2022 and April 2023 tests, reflecting a change in typical usage. The subsequent yearly increases (13 198 miles to April 2024 and 12 675 miles to April 2025) are within expected ranges for a six‑year‑old Focus. Although the MOT history is free of recorded faults, a prospective buyer should inspect suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine brake discs and callipers for uneven wear or binding, and check tyre tread depth and pressure. A visual survey of the underbody for corrosion, rust spots, and structural integrity is essential, as the MOT does not capture early-stage rust development. A short test drive to listen for abnormal noises from the drivetrain or suspension will confirm the mechanical condition that the clean MOT record does not fully reveal.
