4 How it compares with other 2014 Ecosports

Against every Ford Ecosport first used in 2014 and tested in Great Britain in the 2025 test year (2,449 first-attempt tests) — the most recent full year available.

MeasureThis carTypical 2014 EcosportWhat it means
Pass rate, first attempts8 of 10 (80%)61.1% in 2025Higher than the group figure
Fails, first attempts2 of 1030.2% of first testsLower than the group figure
Fixed during the test (PRS)08.7% of first testsNone on this record
Mileage at its latest test (30 Apr 2026)45,742 miles72,398 (middle half 55,938–90,485)Below the middle half; not an outlier
Clean passes (no advisories)4 of 1024.3% of first testsHigher than the group figure

"Typical" is every Ford Ecosport first used in 2014, any fuel or use — not adjusted for mileage. This car's figures are from its own record only. A first attempt is any test not within 10 days after a failed test of this car. A first attempt whose faults were all put right during the test counts as fixed during the test (PRS), not as a fail, as in DVSA's figures.

  1. On this carSuspension & steering. advisory recorded in the last two years (2020, 2022, 2024, 2026). Worth looking behind each wheel with a torch at the coil springs and bushes, and listening for knocks over bumps on a test drive.
  2. On this carTyres. dangerous item recorded in the last two years (2021, 2024, 2026). Worth checking the tread depth across the whole width of each tyre, and the sidewalls for cuts, cracks and bulges.

  5. Nothing recentBrakes. A top failure area for 2014 Ecosports. Nothing on this car’s record. Worth looking at the discs and pads through the wheel spokes for scoring and a worn lip, and noticing on a test drive whether the car pulls to one side or the pedal feels long.

About this page

This is the public record for one vehicle, drawn from two free government sources: DVLA for the registration — make, year, colour, fuel, emissions, tax and MOT status — and DVSA for every MOT result and mileage reading since 2005. Nothing here costs anything, and nothing here identifies the keeper.

What it cannot tell you is the commercial history: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs and stolen markers. Those come from Experian and are not public. They are the difference between a car you can drive and a car you can lose — see SortedCars Reports, or read the longer guide on the free car check.

The DVLA and DVSA data on this page contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. SortedCars is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, the DVLA or DVSA.

This page shows vehicle information only — no keeper details and no vehicle identification number. Checked on 18 August 2026.
