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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford Focus (AA08 UAX) between May 2011 and November 2025.

The record contains 15 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 14 November 2025 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: Suspension (14 issues), Bodywork (12 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
