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

This vehicle appears roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 2 July 2025 at 114,169 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passing tests over the last three years without any listed advisories. The mileage is typical for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 6,716 miles per year. The record shows a steady increase in usage, climbing from 101,613 miles in July 2023 to 114,169 miles by July 2025. This indicates the car is in regular use rather than sitting idle, which generally helps prevent seals from perishing and brakes from seizing. The absence of recorded defects or advisories across the 2023, 2024, and 2025 tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age. While the data suggests a well-maintained car, the lack of any mentioned wear on consumables like brake discs, tyres, or suspension bushes is atypical for a seventeen-year-old Ford Focus. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT record does not explicitly detail. Check for structural corrosion on the sills and chassis, as these are common failure points for this era of Focus. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes and timing belt replacements align with the mileage, as the MOT only confirms basic roadworthiness rather than comprehensive mechanical health.

MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 Ford Focus (CK59 ACO) between July 2024 and June 2026.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 29 June 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (7 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 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: “Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural stren”; “Nearside Front Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn rear bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”.
