2014 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · WM64 PDX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistent history of clean passes without recorded defects. The most recent test conducted on 13 December 2023 at 85,448 miles returned no failures or advisories, indicating that the previous owner maintained the car to a standard that prevented regressions. The lack of recurring mechanical issues over the last five recorded tests suggests a proactive approach to basic upkeep. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between September 2021 and December 2022, where the car covered over 11,000 miles in just fifteen months. However, the rate slowed down significantly, with only 9,608 miles recorded between the December 2022 and December 2023 tests. The total mileage of 85,448 miles suggests the drivetrain and suspension components have not subjected to excessive stress compared to high-mileage examples. While the MOT record is clean, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for this Ford Focus generation that do not always trigger an MOT failure. Given the age of the vehicle, inspect the rear suspension trailing control arm bushings for cracking or tearing, as these often perish over time regardless of mileage. Also examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as the record does not specify the thickness of the metal components. Checking the underside for early-stage structural rust is advisable to ensure the integrity remains as sound as the clean history implies.
