2014 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · FN64 WWC

The 2014 Ford Focus presents a stable and consistently sound mechanical condition, culminating in a clean pass at its most recent MOT on 19 August 2025 at 30,255 miles. The maintenance trend remains entirely stable, with no defects recorded across the last five consecutive annual tests. This unblemished record indicates a vehicle that has required no corrective mechanical or structural intervention to meet roadworthiness standards over the past four years. The absence of advisories or failures suggests diligent upkeep and a lack of chronic mechanical faults. The mileage accumulation aligns precisely with the vehicle's age, reflecting exceptionally light usage. Between the September 2021 test at 21,488 miles and the August 2025 test at 30,255 miles, the Focus covered just 8,767 miles over nearly four years, averaging roughly 2,191 miles annually. The yearly increments remain remarkably consistent: 2,306 miles between 2021 and 2022, 2,443 miles between 2022 and 2023, 2,040 miles between 2023 and 2024, and 1,978 miles between 2024 and 2025. Such low, steady mileage typically spares the drivetrain and consumables from heavy wear, though prolonged periods of standing can pose separate issues like tyre flat-spoting or brake disc corrosion. Despite the flawless MOT history, a physical inspection remains essential to verify the condition of ageing components that MOTs do not always fully assess. Buyers should closely examine the tyre sidewalls for cracking, as rubber degrades with time regardless of tread depth, and check the brake discs for surface corrosion caused by short journeys. Suspension bushes and exhaust mounts also warrant scrutiny, as perishing can occur on vehicles that sit idle for extended periods. Underbody condition requires a thorough check to ensure structural integrity remains intact, particularly around the suspension mounting points and subframes, even though no corrosion has previously warranted a tester's attention.
