2014 Ford Focus 1.6L Diesel · SE64 ABX

The vehicle displays a stable and clean maintenance record, having passed its most recent MOT on 25 February 2025 at 81,281 miles without any recorded defects or advisories. While the record shows a dual entry on the same day where an initial failure preceded the pass, the absence of specific defect codes suggests this was likely an administrative error or a minor rectification handled immediately at the testing station. The overall trend is positive, indicating that the car has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets the legal requirements for roadworthiness. The recorded mileage of 81,281 miles over a twelve-year lifespan averages approximately 6,773 miles per annum, which is well within the expected range for a vehicle of this type. The progression of mileage is consistent across the test dates, showing a steady accumulation of roughly 8,000 to 12,000 miles between annual inspections. There are no concerning gaps in the testing history, and the consistent lack of advisories over the past five years suggests that previous owners have addressed consumable items like tyres and brake components before they reached a critical state. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the common wear items that often escape MOT scrutiny, specifically the condition of the suspension bushes and the integrity of the coil springs, which can fatigue over this mileage. Check the brake discs for signs of pitting or uneven wear, as these are often replaced between tests. Given the age of the vehicle, examine the underside for any early signs of surface corrosion on the subframes or brake lines. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, a thorough check of the service history for engine oil changes and timing belt replacement intervals remains essential to ensure the long-term reliability of the drivetrain.
