2017 Ford Focus 2.0L Diesel · OO07 ABC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on 19 June 2026 at 87,091 miles, but the maintenance trend shows signs of declining attention to consumable components. The most recent test required a failure to rectify a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system and a faulty nearside side repeater. The inspector also flagged a heavy clutch pedal and an offside front tyre worn bald on the inner edge. These recent issues suggest a shift from the clean record seen in 2025 toward more frequent minor failures and neglected maintenance items. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical usage pattern for a nine-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 87,091 miles, averaging roughly 9,700 miles per year. The records show steady progression from 31,519 miles in February 2020 to 87,091 miles in June 2026. There are no significant gaps in the testing history, indicating the vehicle has been used regularly and the owner has maintained annual inspections. A prospective buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the clutch mechanism due to the heavy pedal reported in the June 2026 test. This could indicate internal wear or hydraulic issues within the release bearing or master cylinder. The recurring mention of uneven tyre wear, specifically the offside front tyre being bald on the inner edge in 2026 and both front tyres being worn on the edge in 2022, strongly suggests an underlying wheel alignment or suspension geometry issue. Further attention should be given to the braking system. The June 2023 test at 57,172 miles highlighted front brake pads wearing thin and worn brake discs. While these were likely replaced, the history of tyre damage, including multiple nails and splits recorded between 2021 and 2024, points to a pattern of minor neglect regarding tyre condition. Checking the current tread depth and ensuring the wheel alignment is within specification would be prudent steps before purchase.
