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 MOT pass on 12 June 2025 at 112,433 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The DVSA data shows a clean run of passes from 17 June 2022 through to the 2025 cycle, with no advisories or defects logged at any stage. A failed test on 12 June 2025 at the same mileage as the pass on the same day is anomalous; the failure carried no recorded defects, which points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage has held close to the vehicle's long-term average of roughly 7,500 miles per year. The records show 98,579 miles on 17 June 2022, 102,787 on 2 June 2023, 107,668 on 10 June 2024, and 112,433 on 12 June 2025. That is a steady accumulation of around 4,500 to 4,900 miles annually between tests, with no gaps exceeding twelve months and no sudden high-use spikes. The sparse, defect-free history suggests the previous keeper kept the car to a basic annual test standard without neglected intervals. Given the absence of flagged items across five years of testing, no recurring wear patterns such as worn suspension bushes, corroded subframes, or binding brake calipers appear in the official record. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT examiner may not have raised minor surface rust that develops on a fifteen-year-old vehicle. Check the brake discs and pads for genuine remaining life, verify tyre sidewall condition beyond tread depth, and confirm the exhaust emissions remain within limits under load. The clean MOT trail implies reasonable care, but the same-day fail without defects warrants confirmation that the V5C and DVSA entry reflect a corrected submission rather than an unresolved issue.
