MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Ford Focus (FC04 KAE) between January 2008 and February 2020.

The record contains 13 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 10 February 2020 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (13 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Suspension (11 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Bodywork (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 62 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 Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.2.B.1f)”; “Central Front Exhaust system not adequately supported bracket broken (7.1.1)”; “Offside Rear Stop lamp not working (1.2.1b)”.
