Our Verdict
A dependable example of the 2.0L diesel
The primary point for negotiation is the suspension; trailing arm bushes have been flagged in both 2025 and 2026, suggesting a progressive wear issue that will eventually require replacement. You should also verify if the rear brake pads, noted as wearing thin in September 2025, have since been replaced.
Ensure you review the service history for evidence of regular oil changes and the timing belt replacement interval, which is a critical maintenance item for this 1997cc diesel engine. Given the vehicle's age, check for any signs of corrosion on the underside that may not have reached the threshold of an MOT advisory yet.
The 2.0L diesel engine is generally efficient for longer commutes, though urban fuel economy will be lower. Maintenance costs for this model often involve the common failure points seen across the wider Focus fleet, such as anti-roll bar components and tyre replacements.
Annual costs will include the diesel fuel, VED tax based on the 2013 emissions bracket, and insurance. Routine servicing and the eventual replacement of the flagged suspension bushes will contribute to the yearly spend.
Inspect the suspension specifically, focusing on the nearside rear and offside front trailing arm bushes mentioned in the August 2026 MOT. These are recurring issues that need monitoring to ensure they do not lead to excessive movement or failure.
Check the condition of the rear brake pads to see if the 2025 advisory has been addressed. Additionally, perform a visual check of the headlamps and tyres, as aggregate data indicates these are the most frequent reasons for MOT failures across the Focus model range.
This blue 2013 Ford Focus has recorded 86,277 miles, which is slightly below the model average of 6,826 miles per year. The MOT history shows three consecutive passes, though the most recent tests highlight wear in the suspension arm bushes. It represents a typical mid-mileage diesel hatchback of this era with no recorded MOT failures in the provided history.
The Focus has an average MOT pass rate of 79.2%, with common failures typically relating to tyres, headlamps, and anti-roll bars.
