MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Ford Focus (RJ05 XOS) between March 2008 and April 2023.

The record contains 16 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 17 April 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (37 issues), Suspension (22 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Steering (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 59 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 Rear Inner Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure sidewall (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Exhaust carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle exceeds manufacturer's specified limits (8.2.1.2 (a))”; “Exhaust emissions exceed manufacturer's specified limit (8.2.2.2 (a))”.
