2015 Ford Focus 1.5L Diesel · W22 SAC

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 36,883 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. This consistency suggests that the vehicle has been well-kept and has not suffered from the progressive mechanical failures typically seen in cars of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 3,353 miles per year. Between September 2021 and September 2025, the car covered only 8,745 miles, showing a pattern of short-distance use or long periods of inactivity. While low mileage generally reduces wear on components like the engine, brake pads, and drivetrain, the infrequent use between tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components or corrosion on brake surfaces that does not always trigger a standard MOT failure. Given the lack of recorded advisories, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by time rather than just distance. Check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and tyre sidewalls for cracking or dry rot, as these materials perish regardless of mileage. It is also prudent to inspect the brake discs for pitting or corrosion and ensure the brake fluid has not absorbed moisture during long stationary periods. The structural integrity appears sound based on the records, but a visual check of the underbody for surface rust remains standard practice.
