MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Ford Focus (EF55 AAJ) between December 2008 and June 2019.

The record contains 11 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 10 June 2019 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (8 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Windscreen (1 issue), Lighting (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 11 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 Inner Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Offside Rear Brake pad(s) worn down to wear indicator (1.1.13 (a) (i))”; “Offside Rear coil spring broken (2.4.C.1a)”.
