MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Ford Focus (S891 URT) between December 2005 and April 2014.

The record contains 8 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 30 April 2014 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (6 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues), Brakes (1 issue), Steering (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 6 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: “Offside Front Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.2.B.1f)”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”; “Offside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (3.6.B.2c)”.
