2017 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · OE66 OJS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of consistent passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 23 December 2025 at 32,344 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating an improvement from the previous year where a minor brake issue was identified. This suggests that the owner addressed the necessary maintenance requirements, as the vehicle returned to a clean state without any further mechanical failures or advisories. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per annum. Between February 2022 at 11,706 miles and December 2025 at 32,344 miles, the car covered only 20,638 miles over four years. This low-frequency usage typically means less mechanical wear on drivetrain components and engine internals. However, the long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components such as suspension bushes and tyre sidew, which are not always captured in the mileage figures alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, as the tester flagged thin front brake pads during the January 2025 test at 26,188 miles. While the car passed later that year, the remaining life of the pads should be checked for uneven wear or pitting from infrequent use. Given the low mileage, it is also vital to inspect for brake corrosion on the discs and corrosion on the exhaust system, as vehicles that sit for long periods are prone to surface rust that can progress over time.
