2014 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · GV14 CWT

The most recent MOT record from 14 November 2025 shows a pass with no defects, following a failure two days prior on 12 November 2025. This pattern of failing and immediately passing suggests intermittent issues that require rectification to meet minimum standards. While the most recent result is clean, the history shows a recurring trend of failures in both 2024 and 2025, indicating that the vehicle has twice struggled to meet the required threshold for roadworthiness during the annual inspection. The vehicle has covered 62,952 miles over its 12-year lifespan, averaging approximately 5,246 miles per year. This represents low annual usage for a 2014 model. The MOT records show consistent annual testing every November from 2023 through 2025. There are no significant gaps in the testing timeline, though the low mileage suggests the vehicle may experience more component degradation from sitting idle rather than from heavy mechanical wear. Because the MOT records for 2024 and 2025 both list failures without specifying the exact mechanical cause in the provided data, a physical inspection is necessary to identify the recurring fault. A buyer should specifically examine the braking system for binding calipers or worn discs, and check the suspension for perished bushes or weakened coil springs. Given the low mileage and the potential for long periods of inactivity, inspecting the fuel system, battery health, and tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking is also advisable. buying_score: 55 risk_level: Medium.
