2017 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · WN67 KRE

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-03-17 at 88,528 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but the preceding test on 2026-03-16 at 88,513 miles showed a failure without recorded issues. This inconsistency suggests potential administrative error or unreported faults, though the lack of defects in subsequent tests implies no critical mechanical failures. The overall trend from 2023 to 2025 shows consistent passing results with no defects, indicating stable maintenance practices over the past three years. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 9-year-old vehicle, averaging 9,836 miles annually. The longest gap between MOTs spans 13 months from 2024-04-24 (69,355 miles) to 2025-05-02 (80,797 miles), reflecting a 11,442-mile increase. This suggests moderate usage but no rapid wear patterns. The absence of recurring issues in the record indicates no systemic problems, though the failure in early 2026 warrants scrutiny for possible unrecorded defects. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, for wear given the vehicle’s age. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for binding or uneven wear, as these often develop gradually. Corrosion in underbody areas and exhaust emissions compliance are also critical, as these can deteriorate without immediate visible signs. The lack of advisories in the MOT history is positive, but physical inspection remains essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition.
