Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Ford Focus (BV56 ACO) between August 2009 and September 2026.
The record contains 17 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (20 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Bodywork (5 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Brakes (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 36 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Rear Coil spring corroded so that its cross sectional area is reduced and seriously weakened (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Anti-lock braking system warning lamp indicates an ABS fault (1.6 (b))”; “Front Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural strength BOTH”.
