MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford Focus (EK08 CYA) between April 2011 and April 2025.

The record contains 15 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 16 April 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (12 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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: “Offside Front Steering linkage ball joint has excessive play rack end (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural strength both rear ”; “Front Registration plate inscription illegible (0.1 (b))”.
