Our Verdict

This 2014 Ford Focus Titanium Navigator TDCi is a reasonable buy if priced correctly, but the repeated MOT failures with no recorded defects suggest administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical faults. Budget for a thorough inspection and confirmation of paperwork before committing.

Given the two MOT failures in March 2025 (54,996 miles) and March 2026 (68,054 miles) with no defects recorded, establish why the vehicle failed — this is often due to documentation, lighting, or presentation issues rather than mechanical faults, so ask the seller for the full failure and retest paperwork. Confirm the service history is complete for the 1.6 TDCi diesel, as Ford's diesel units benefit from timely oil and filter changes and correct emissions system care.

As a 1560cc diesel, the Focus Titanium Navigator TDCi typically offers strong fuel economy, though exact figures are not provided in the data. The 2024 MOT noted worn inner front brake discs, so allow for a brake refresh in the near term alongside routine servicing. No insurance group or tax band is listed in the supplied data, so check the current VED and insurance quote using the registration MK14AEC before purchase; estimated annual running cost is £800-£1,000.

The 2024 MOT at 49,340 miles flagged near and offside front inner brake discs as worn, pitted or scored but not seriously weakened — physically check the front discs and pads for wear and replace if needed. The two failures with no defects recorded mean you should verify the car presents correctly: all lights, tyres, mirrors, and number plates must be roadworthy and the V5C must match MK14AEC. Inspect the diesel engine for cold-start smoke and confirm the odometer reading of 68,731 miles aligns with the service stamps.

The silver 1.6-litre diesel Focus registered as MK14AEC in March 2014 shows 68,731 miles on its most recent April 2026 MOT, which is modest for a 12-year-old car. Its history includes two MOT failures in 2025 and 2026 where no defects were listed, plus a 2024 pass with minor front brake disc wear advisories. No aggregate model reliability data is available, so assessment relies solely on this vehicle's own record.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Ford Focus Titanium Navigator TDCi, so this assessment is based only on the individual vehicle's history.
