Compare Ford Focus interim service and MOT quotes from specialist garages

Ford was the first carmaker to introduce a vehicle assembly line, speeding up the process of production and bringing cars to more people than ever before. The brand's motorsport credentials are equally impressive. In the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans race, Ford ended Ferrari's six-year winning streak, beating the likes of Porsche and Lamborghini to the title with an ever-popular GT40.

Jim Morrison, the lead singer of rock band The Doors, famously adored his 1967 Ford Shelby GT500, the only car he ever owned. It is a mystery to this day where the vehicle ended up after his death.

Booking an MOT and interim service together could save you time and money. Some garages may offer a discount on the usual price of an MOT, and the service will help prevent issues later down the line.

Most manufacturers recommend you book an interim service - sometimes referred to as a minor service - every 6,000 miles. Usually, this involves a check of your car's fluids, engine, battery, tyres and lights. It is less comprehensive than a full service.

During a car interim service and MOT, the MOT test should be completed first, so there is less work to do during the service and no checks are repeated.

When searching for the best MOT and interim service prices, you should also consider the number of checks offered in the service and whether you can get a discount.
