This 2014 Ford has 10 MOT tests on record with a 90% pass rate and 14,364 miles. However, a dangerous tyre defect and a major brake failure in its history, coupled with a known model-specific head gasket issue, warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,984 miles per year, with a notable spike in usage between 2022 and 2023, but no suspicious drops or inconsistencies.
Things to check
- Dangerous tyre defect (bulge) recorded on 2025-08-01, indicating a serious safety concern.
- Major brake failure recorded on 2024-08-01, suggesting a significant safety-critical system issue.
- Offside Rear Shock absorbers had a serious fluid leak (ADVISORY) on 2024-08-01, a structural integrity concern.
- Community-reported 'turbo fail' and 'blown head gasket' issues for 2014 Ford models are high-risk.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-27, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (5,984 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
- No recurring failures on the same system, indicating issues were addressed at the time.
- No recent advisories on the most recent MOT (Aug 2025), showing current roadworthiness.
