2008 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · NL58 TMU

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following the 14 August 2025 MOT test at 116,297 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. Maintenance trend across the supplied history remains stable, with passes logged on 18 November 2022, 16 November 2023, and 12 November 2024 alongside the latest certificate. The sole anomaly appears in the 11 November 2024 failure at 111,376 miles, which listed no defects yet was followed by a pass on 12 November 2024 at 111,377 miles, suggesting an administrative or unlogged compliance matter swiftly cleared by the previous owner. Mileage progression aligns with typical use for an 18-year-old hatchback. The record shows 97,235 miles on 18 November 2022, rising to 106,557 by 16 November 2023, then 111,377 at the November 2024 tests, and finally 116,297 in August 2025. Annual accumulation averaged roughly 6,000 to 9,000 miles, reflecting gentle to moderate yearly coverage with no abrupt surges that would accelerate drivetrain or suspension fatigue. The supplied entries form a continuous chain with no prolonged testing gaps, though the absence of earlier certificates limits long-term wear assessment. No advisories or mechanical faults appear in the official logs, so the Focus carries no flagged recurring problems such as worn suspension bushes, corroded brake pipes, or failing emissions. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, coil springs, binding calipers, and exhaust condition, as MOT passes with zero advisories on a high-mileage older car can mask incipient consumable wear. The previous keeper maintained basic test compliance, but the unexplained same-week fail indicates verifying the V5C and test documentation is prudent before purchase.
