2014 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · DX14 BCE

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 9 November 2025 at 115,680 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of five consecutive years of clean passes, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance and a lack of recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is steady and aligns with typical usage for a twelve year old vehicle. Between the 30 September 2021 test at 94,984 miles and the final entry in November 2025, the car covered 20,696 miles. This averages roughly 5,100 miles per year over the last four years, which is lower than the overall lifetime average of 9,640 miles per year. Such a consistent climb in odometer readings indicates the car has been used regularly rather than left to stand for long periods. The absence of any advisories regarding brake discs, suspension bushes, or corrosion over a five year period is rare for a Ford Focus of this vintage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the underbody for surface rust and check the condition of the tyres and wiper blades, as these consumables are often replaced between tests and may not appear on a clean MOT certificate. Given the lack of flagged faults, the primary focus during a physical inspection should be on the drivetrain and fluid conditions. Check for any oil leaks around the engine bay and verify the service history to ensure the timing belt and water pump have been replaced according to the manufacturer's intervals, as the MOT record does not track scheduled internal engine maintenance.
