2020 Ford Focus 1.5L Petrol · RV20 NWC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test on 26 May 2026 at 46,782 miles passed, yet revealed multiple immediate concerns related to consumables. The presence of nearside and offside front tyres worn to the legal limit with uneven edge wear, alongside a nail in the offside front, indicates that the previous owner neglected basic tyre maintenance until the MOT deadline forced action. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. There is a notable gap in testing frequency between February 2024 at 31,757 miles and June 2024 at 32,973 miles, where only 1,216 miles were covered in four months. However, the subsequent jump of 6,333 miles between the May 2025 and May 2026 tests suggests a return to regular usage patterns following the 2024 failure. A buyer must inspect the front suspension assembly closely, as the nearside front wheel bearing was flagged for roughness in June 2024. While the vehicle passed since then, the recent uneven tyre wear noted in 2026 suggests potential lingering alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that remain unaddressed. The recorded windscreen damage noted in the latest report should also be monitored for propagation to ensure the crack does not compromise the structural integrity of the glass or the driver's view.
