MOT Analysis

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

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 2000 Ford Focus (W514 TLB) between March 2006 and June 2015.

The record contains 10 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 05 June 2015 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: Windscreen (13 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Tyres (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 25 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 Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (8.2.2)”; “Nearside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (8.2.2)”; “Offside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover excessively deteriorated so that it no longer prevents the ing”.
