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

This Ford Focus is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 5 January 2026 at 148,489 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a failure on 31 December 2025, though the record lists no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a possible administrative error or a minor issue resolved immediately. The vehicle has covered 148,489 miles over 13 years, averaging roughly 11,422 miles per year. This is a typical usage pattern for this model. Mileage accumulation has remained consistent, increasing by 11,125 miles between April 2023 and May 2024, and a further 11,877 miles by January 2026. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in usage that would indicate periods of neglect or heavy commercial use. The MOT history is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age and mileage. No recurring faults regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs appear across the tests from 2023 to 2026. The absence of advisories suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance or a very lucky run of inspections. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underbody for corrosion, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail structural integrity beyond the pass/fail status. Given the mileage, checking for wear in the drivetrain components and inspecting the condition of the brake pads and tyres is advisable to ensure consumables are not nearing the end of their service life.
