2014 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · MD63 NSF

The vehicle's roadworthiness is currently poor, as evidenced by a single MOT failure recorded on 2025-05-22 at 57,919 miles. This recent failure indicates an ongoing trend of worsening condition rather than a stable one, as the previous two tests in May 2025 were both passed with no recorded defects. The lack of repairs or maintenance history suggests that the vehicle has not undergone a full preventative overhaul since the last inspection, leaving critical components in a compromised state. The mileage data reveals a significant disparity between the vehicle's age and its recorded usage. With approximately 12 years old and 57,919 miles, the vehicle is approaching the end of its normal service life, yet it has not experienced the typical gradual wear associated with age. The gap between the 57,919 mile test in May 2025 and the 52,388 mile test in May 2024 suggests either a lack of regular servicing or a pattern where mileage is not accumulating at the expected rate, which could indicate a lack of proper brake or suspension maintenance. Given the failure of the 2025 test and the absence of prior maintenance records, the buyer must inspect the car for structural integrity and mechanical wear. Specific items to check include the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for corrosion or binding, as well as the exhaust system for emissions. A failure in the 2025 test at 57,919 miles indicates that the vehicle has not been serviced since that date, leaving the drivetrain and braking system vulnerable to further damage if not addressed immediately.
