MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford Focus (ML08 FYZ) between April 2011 and July 2024.

The record contains 14 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 29 July 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (5 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 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: “Nearside Front Outer Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords Tyre wall cut al”; “Nearside Rear Anti-roll bar linkage fractured (5.3.3 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Position lamp not working (4.2.1 (a) (ii))”.
