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 (SM06 PPZ) between May 2009 and May 2021.

The record contains 12 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 13 May 2021 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

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

In total 38 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 Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Rear Direction indicator incorrect colour both (4.4.3 (a))”; “Front Direction indicator incorrect colour both (4.4.3 (a))”.
