2014 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · SH14 DNJ

The vehicle emerged from its most recent MOT on 30 October 2025 at 30,180 miles with a clean PASS and no recorded defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness record across the last five examinations. No recurring advisories appear, and the absence of failures suggests that the previous owners maintained the car within the statutory limits. Mileage has accumulated very modestly for a 2014 model, averaging roughly 2,500 miles per year. The log shows an increase of 5,312 miles between the 11 May 2022 test (20,167 miles) and the 9 May 2023 test (21,699 miles), followed by a 1,065‑mile rise to the 13 May 2024 test (23,764 miles). The subsequent 1,114‑mile jump to the 31 October 2024 test and the 5,416‑mile gain to the latest 30 October 2025 test reflect consistent, low‑volume usage without any abrupt spikes that would suggest intensive short‑term travel. The sparse mileage growth aligns with the low‑kilometre claim and points to limited wear on high‑stress components. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of consumables that the MOT does not capture, such as tyre tread depth, brake pad thickness, and the integrity of suspension bushes and coil springs. Visual inspection for any emerging corrosion on the body panels, under‑carriage, and wheel arches remains prudent, as rust can develop between tests. Confirm that the exhaust system is free of leaks and that the steering rack operates without binding. While the MOT history shows no structural or mechanical alerts, a thorough in‑person assessment of these areas will ensure that the vehicle’s low‑mileage advantage translates into reliable service life.
