Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The 2012 Ford Focus holds a valid roadworthy certificate after the 25 July 2025 MOT pass at 108,011 miles. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, with no defects or advisories recorded in any test. Two failed tests on 24 July 2025 and 25 July 2023 show no defects logged, each immediately followed by a pass at near-identical mileage; this pattern suggests administrative or procedural anomalies rather than mechanical decline. Mileage progression aligns with typical use for a 14-year-old hatchback. The record opens at 91,210 miles on 25 July 2023, climbs to 99,332 miles by 26 July 2024, and reaches 108,011 miles on 25 July 2025. Annual gains of roughly 8,100 to 8,700 miles reflect steady private or light commercial use, slightly above the derived 7,715 miles per year mean. Testing remained continuous with no lapse between annual examinations. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-sensitive components the MOT did not flag. Examine suspension bushes for play and coil springs for corrosion or breakage. Measure brake disc thickness and test calipers for binding. Inspect structural members, sill seams and exhaust system for rust. The unexplained failures warrant a direct question to the seller or a DVSA record check to rule out omitted faults.
