Our Verdict
A highly attractive option for buyers seeking a low-mileage petrol hatchback. The consistent MOT history and significantly below-average mileage make this a standout example of a 2017 Ford Focus.
When viewing this vehicle, verify the service history to see how the low mileage has been supported by regular maintenance. While the MOT records show no defects, you should still check for any signs of age-related wear on rubber components or tyres, as low-use vehicles can sometimes suffer from perished components.
Negotiate based on the documented mileage and the clean MOT record. Ensure that any recent work, such as tyre replacements or brake servicing, is documented, as these are common maintenance items even for low-mileage cars. Check the service interval stamps to ensure the 1.0L EcoBoost engine has been maintained according to Ford's recommendations.
The 999cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing it in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to larger displacement models. Fuel economy should be competitive for a hatchback of this size, particularly for urban and suburban driving.
Annual running costs will be influenced by insurance premiums and servicing. While the low mileage suggests fewer mechanical repairs, you should budget for standard maintenance such as oil changes and tyre replacements. Estimated annual running costs are approximately £850-£1,100, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance.
Focus on the tyres and lighting systems. Although this specific vehicle has had no MOT failures, the aggregate data for Ford Focus models shows that tyres and headlamps are common failure points. Check that all bulbs are functioning and that the tyre tread is even and within legal limits.
Additionally, inspect the vehicle for any signs of corrosion, which is a noted failure reason for this model across the wider dataset. Given the car's blue paintwork, check for any significant stone chips or scratches that might require attention, and ensure the engine bay is free from obvious leaks or signs of neglect.
This 2017 blue Ford Focus 1.0L petrol has covered just 23,648 miles as of its last MOT in October 2025. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes with no recorded defects or failures since its first test in 2021. Given the model's average annual mileage is 6,879, this vehicle has been driven considerably less than the typical example of its age.
The Ford Focus has a recorded average MOT pass rate of 79.0% across the analysed dataset, with common issues relating to tyres, headlamps, and corrosion.
