2018 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · VX18 HSK

The 2018 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 22 November 2025 at 59,580 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean MOT outcomes across the vehicle's history. Mileage accumulation has been moderate and consistent for an eight-year-old car. The record shows 22,317 miles at the June 2022 test, rising to 29,242 by May 2023, 33,220 by November 2023, 44,400 by December 2024, and 59,580 by November 2025. This equates to roughly 7,448 miles per year with no abrupt jumps or prolonged standing gaps, indicating steady private or light-use motoring rather than neglect or high-stress driving. No advisories or defects appear in any test from 2022 to 2025, so the history gives no signal of recurring suspension, brake, or corrosion issues. The absence of flagged coil springs, binding calipers, or structural integrity concerns suggests previous owners kept the car to a standard that satisfied examiners without noted wear items. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable components not always caught at test: brake disc thickness, suspension bush condition, and underbody corrosion. Given the clean record, focus on confirming tyre age, fluid intervals, and cam belt history, since these are outside MOT scope yet critical to the Focus at this mileage.
