AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a pattern of reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in October 2025 at 108,973 miles passed with minor advisories regarding an oil leak and discoloured indicators. While the car has passed its last three annual tests, the recurring presence of an oil leak between 2023 and 2025 suggests a persistent issue that has not yet been fully rectified by the owner. At 108,973 miles, the Focus has averaged approximately 7,265 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a fifteen-year-old vehicle. The mileage accumulation is steady, with roughly 8,700 miles driven between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests. This consistent use suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components, despite the age-related wear noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the suspension and sealing components, given the failure in October 2023 at 90,957 miles due to a fractured offside front coil spring. The history also notes a coolant leak in 2022 and an exhaust flexi leak, both of which require a physical check for signs of thermal stress or corrosion-related thinning. The frequent advisories for perishing and uneven tyre wear between 2022 and 2023 indicate that previous owners often neglected basic consumable maintenance until components reached the point of failure.
