MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 Ford Focus (ML59 UXS) between October 2012 and July 2026.

The record contains 16 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 28 July 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (14 issues), Suspension (12 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues), Lighting (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 40 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: “Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively all wipers. (3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Headlamp aim too high may need new bulb or refitting (4.1.2 (a))”; “Rear fog lamp lens defective such that emitted light is adversely affected fog light not red faded to nearly white (4.5.”.
