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 2006 Ford Focus (NJ06 VLC) between June 2009 and April 2025.

The record contains 16 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 14 April 2025 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: Suspension (18 issues), Brakes (14 issues), Windscreen (10 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 60 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: “Rear Registration plate does not conform to the specified requirements (0.1 (d))”; “Offside Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”; “Nearside Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”.
