AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2012 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 29 July 2025 at 127,927 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every annual test ultimately resulting in a pass and no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. Recorded mileage sits at 127,927 miles against an age of roughly 14 years, equating to about 9,138 miles per year which is typical for a vehicle of this class. The records show 113,304 miles at the 1 August 2023 test, 123,322 miles at both the 31 July 2024 failure and pass, and 127,925 to 127,927 miles across the 29 July 2025 failure and pass. Annual accumulation runs between roughly 10,000 and 4,600 miles, with no standing gaps or sudden high-use spikes evident. The duplicated test entries on 31 July 2024 and 29 July 2025 show a failure immediately followed by a pass at near-identical mileages, implying the vehicle was presented, rejected on administrative or non-mechanical grounds, then cleared the same day with no defects listed. No suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emission concerns appear anywhere in the data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, subframe corrosion, and consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades given the age. The clean MOT trail suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the absence of advisories on a 14-year-old car warrants hands-on verification of steering joints and suspension mounts before purchase.
