MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Ford Focus (SD12 YBA) between April 2015 and August 2026.

The record contains 12 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 20 August 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 (13 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 32 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 Exhaust system insecure mount broken away from exhaust (6.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Nearside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”.
