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

The MOT history for this 2017 Ford Focus shows a stable record of compliance, with the most recent test on 22 July 2025 resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean streak extends back to 2022, indicating that the vehicle has met the required safety standards during its last four annual inspections. The absence of advisories across these consecutive tests suggests that the vehicle has not exhibited recurring mechanical or structural issues during this period. The vehicle has covered 25,805 miles over its nine-year lifespan, averaging approximately 2,867 miles per year. This low annual usage indicates the car has spent significant time stationary. While the MOT history remains clear, low-mileage vehicles can sometimes develop issues related to inactivity, such as seized brake calipers, perished rubber components, or battery degradation, which may not always manifest during a standard MOT inspection. Prospective buyers should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system, as low usage often leads to surface corrosion on brake discs and potential binding of the calipers. Check the condition of all suspension bushes and gaiters for signs of perishing or cracking due to age rather than high-mileage wear. Verify the state of the tyres for flat spots or sidewall cracking, as the low annual mileage suggests they may have been on the vehicle for an extended duration. Buying score: 85. Risk level: Low.
