2017 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · SW17 AAJ

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend following previous mechanical failures. The most recent test on 22 May 2025 at 107,244 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical and safety issues identified in prior years were addressed. While the history shows instances of failure, the subsequent clean passes suggest the vehicle is currently being maintained to a functional operational standard. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a nine-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 12,000 miles annually. Data shows a steady accumulation of roughly 10,000 miles between March 2023 and March 2024, followed by another 10,000 miles between March 2024 and May 2025. This regular usage suggests the car is driven consistently rather than sitting for long periods, which generally helps prevent the degradation of rubber-based components and prevents fluid contamination. A buyer should focus inspection on the specific components that caused the failures in March 2023 and March 2024, although the provided record does not list the specific reason for those faults. The recurring nature of failures within short intervals suggests that certain wear items, such as suspension bushes or brake system components, may require more frequent monitoring. A physical inspection of the underside for corrosion on the structural integrity is necessary, given the vehicle has exceeded the 100,000-mile mark.
