AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 11 September 2025 at 84,501 miles with no defects recorded. All tests from 2022 to 2025 show a pass result, indicating a stable maintenance trend with no recorded faults. Mileage increased from 69,651 miles on 15 September 2022 to 84,501 miles on 11 September 2025, averaging roughly 6,000 miles per year, which is typical for a 14‑year‑old Ford Focus. Tests are spaced about 12 months apart, showing consistent annual use. A duplicate entry for 14 September 2023 lists a fail at the same mileage but records no defects, suggesting a clerical error rather than a mechanical issue. Because the MOT history shows no recorded advisories, a buyer should still verify core items such as front and rear suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and pads for wear, and check the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks. Inspect the sills, wheel arches and underbody for any signs of rust that may not have triggered an advisory. Finally, check tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition as these consumables are not captured unless they fall below legal limits.
