Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 2 November 2026: valid until 12 October 2027.

It failed its MOT on 9 October 2026 (nearside front inner drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt; offside front inner drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt; offside front headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect; and 1 more) and passed 4 days later, on 13 October 2026.

Advisories at the latest test: nearside rear coil spring corroded; offside rear coil spring corroded.

Mileage at that test: 123,682 miles. The advert says 123,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.

Advertised mileage is about 41,800 miles higher than the median mileage of a 2012 Ford Focus on AskCar.
