2009 Ford Focus 1.8L Petrol · SH58 YLC

The 2009 Ford Focus is presently roadworthy, having passed the March 15 2023 MOT at 125,851 miles with no defects recorded. The consecutive tests in March 2023, spaced two days apart, show a stable maintenance pattern with no recurring failures. At 17 years old and 125,851 miles, the vehicle averages 7,403 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for its age. The mileage jumps from 121,199 miles on February 23 2022 to 121,202 miles on March 2 2022, a difference of three miles, then to 125,351 miles on March 13 2023, an increase of 4,152 miles in 11 days, followed by a further 500 miles in the two days before the final pass. These intervals suggest periods of low use interspersed with more intensive driving, but the overall progression remains consistent with normal wear. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or cracking, test the binding condition of the rear brake calipers and inspect the brake discs for scoring or corrosion, and assess the structural integrity of the chassis and wheel arches for rust that could compromise safety. In addition, the condition of the tyres, wiper blades and fluid levels should be verified, as the mileage pattern indicates that consumable items may have been neglected during longer idle periods; a thorough visual inspection and a test drive will confirm whether the recorded clean MOT history reflects genuine mechanical health.
