2014 Ford Focus 1.0L Petrol · WN14 XHH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by three consecutive clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 16 January 2026 at 113,962 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and safety-critical components currently meet statutory requirements. This follows a period of consistent performance between 2023 and 2025, suggesting a proactive approach to maintenance that has addressed issues before they could escalate. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old Ford Focus, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per annum. Between January 2023 at 94,977 miles and January 2026 at 113,962 miles, the car covered 18,985 miles, which aligns with typical annual usage patterns. The brief failure recorded on 18 January 2024 at 102,321 miles followed followed by an immediate pass on the same day suggests a minor consumable-related failure that was rectified quickly rather than a systemic mechanical or structural defect. While the digital record is clean, a buyer should focus physical inspection on high-wear areas common to this model at this mileage. Given the 113,000-mile mark, inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or fatigue, as these often degrade after a decade of use. Check the brake discs for corrosion or thinning and examine the calipers for binding, as the MOT does not always capture gradual degradation of these components. A check of the underbody and sills is also necessary to ensure no structural corrosion has developed since the most recent pass.
