2018 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · TJ16 DAV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on its recent inspection history. The most recent test on 09 May 2025 at 91,510 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This indicates the previous owner was proactive in addressing mechanical issues immediately upon being flagged, ensuring the car meets minimum legal standards for the current testing period. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,400 miles per year. The car covered 16,654 miles between September 2023 and September 2024, and a further 5,280 miles between September 2024 and May 2025. This regular usage suggests a standard driving profile rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for mechanical components like seals, tyres, and brake systems. While the record shows no persistent structural advisories, the recurring failures at 69,676 miles and 91,510 miles suggest the vehicle occasionally requires attention to components that reach their service interval limit. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust mounting, as these are prone to wear at this mileage bracket. Additionally, checking the brake discs for signs of uneven wear or thinning will ensure the recent pass reflects a well-maintained braking system rather than a temporary fix.
