MOT Analysis

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

29 MOT tests are recorded for this 2000 Ford Focus (V38 LGP) between February 2006 and February 2024.

The record contains 19 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 13 February 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (32 issues), Brakes (26 issues), Suspension (18 issues), Lighting (14 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 57 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 Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural streng”; “Nearside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”.
