2012 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · EO12 JWM

The Ford Focus presents as roadworthy following a pass on 9 April 2026 at 87,776 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle carries no advisories or defects in any test, and the most recent failure on 31 March 2026 at 87,763 miles shows no recorded defects, indicating the rejection was likely administrative rather than mechanical. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a 2012 vehicle. The record shows 83,256 miles at the April 2024 test, rising to 87,084 miles by April 2025 and 87,776 miles by April 2026. That equates to roughly 4,500 miles annually over the last two years, below the 6,270 miles per year long-term average. Two consecutive years show a fail immediately followed by a pass within days at near-identical mileages, a pattern suggesting the owner addressed a paperwork or minor presentation issue rather than deferred mechanical work. The absence of flagged items such as corroded suspension bushes, worn brake discs, or exhaust emissions failures points to a structurally sound example with no recorded chronic faults. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody corrosion, coil springs, and caliper operation, as MOT entries with no defects do not certify component condition between tests. Given the clean advisory history and low recent mileage, previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic passing standard. Verify service records independently, since the MOT data alone cannot confirm consumable replacement intervals for tyres, wiper blades, or fluid changes.
