MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Ford Focus (SP12 LOJ) between March 2015 and March 2026.

The record contains 13 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 10 March 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (20 issues), Suspension (17 issues), Brakes (16 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 56 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 Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Brake performance unable to be tested (1.2.1 (g))”.
