2009 Ford Focus 2.5L Petrol · RS59 TMS

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistent and clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 12 February 2026 at 54,690 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This trend of five consecutive passes over the last five years indicates the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical or structural failures that typically plague this model. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,217 miles per year. Between January 2022 and February 2026, the car covered 12,976 miles, showing a steady but light usage pattern. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and braking system, the long intervals between tests and low annual mileage can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber-based components or fluid breakdown that is not captured in a standard MOT test. Despite the clean digital record, a buyer should focus their in-person inspection on components susceptible to age rather than distance. Particular attention must be paid to the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and de-greasing, as these can crack or perish over two decades regardless of miles driven. The buyer should also check for corrosion on the brake discs and the structural integrity of the sills and wheel arches, as stationary vehicles are often prone to surface rust if not stored in a dry environment.
