2014 FORD FOCUS1.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on 30 May 2025 at 128,361 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating the car currently meets all safety and emissions standards. While a failure was recorded in May 2024, the immediate re-test the following day suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying the identified defect rather than allowing it to persist across testing cycles. At 128,361 miles, this Ford Focus has averaged approximately 10,700 miles per year over its twelve years, which aligns closely with national averages for a vehicle of this age. The mileage data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 12,000 miles covered between the June 2022 and 2023 tests, and another 13,000 miles recorded prior to the 2024 inspection. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of inactivity, which often leads to the degradation of rubber seals and brake system components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to high-mileage wear despite the clean de-test records. Given the vehicle has surpassed 125,000 miles, close attention is required regarding the suspension bushes, coil springs, and ball joints, as these often show signs of fatigue at this stage. The lack of recorded advisories in the last two tests suggests the structural integrity remains sound, but a manual check of underbody corrosion and exhaust mounting points is still advisable to ensure no hidden rust is developing away from the tester's access points.
