MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Ford Focus (WV55 VCP) between September 2008 and May 2021.

The record contains 14 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 28 May 2021 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: Tyres (15 issues), Suspension (10 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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 Wheel bearing rough when rotated (5.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Nearside Front Wheel bearing rough when rotated (5.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”.
