2009 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · SH09 OWY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 10 April 2026 at 99,741 miles. The maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable, as the record shows no recorded defects or advisories across the last three years of testing. The absence of any flagged mechanical or structural issues suggests a vehicle that has been kept in a high state of repair. The mileage is notably low for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 5,867 miles per year. Between 29 March 2024 and 10 April 2026, the odometer increased by only 1,003 miles. This minimal usage over a two-year period indicates the car has spent significant time stationary or has been used for very short trips. While the MOT record is clean, the low usage pattern introduces specific risks. A buyer should check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which can degrade regardless of mileage. The lack of recorded faults is positive, but the low annual mileage means the engine and braking system may suffer from inactivity. An in-person inspection should focus on signs of corrosion on the chassis and brake discs, as cars that stand for long periods are prone to surface rust and binding calipers. Checking the fluid condition and battery health is also advisable to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from long-term dormancy.
