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

The 2011 Ford Focus presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 30 August 2025 at 120,454 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the three years of available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. The repeated pass-fail-pass sequences on the same dates in 2024 and 2025 point to administrative re-tests rather than unresolved defects, as both failures show no recorded defects. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,030 miles per year. The record moves from 108,942 miles at the September 2023 test to 114,920 miles in September 2024, then to 120,454 miles by August 2025. That equates to around 5,978 miles in the first interval and 5,534 in the second, showing consistent light-to-moderate use with no sudden accumulation spikes or prolonged standing gaps. The clean MOT history gives no cause to suspect active suspension bush wear, coil spring fracture, binding calipers, or structural corrosion at the tested points. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection of brake disc thickness, underbody rust, and exhaust emissions, since the DVSA test only captures condition at the moment of testing and does not record consumable life remaining. Previous keepers appear to have kept the car to a basic pass standard with no flagged neglect, though the absence of advisories across this period may mean worn items were replaced before they reached test-threshold rather than left to deteriorate. Given the age and mileage, verify service history and check for intermittent electrical faults not covered by MOT scope.
