2014 Ford Tourneo MOT pass rate: 70.5% (4,568 tests)
Is the 2014 Tourneo getting worse?
Pass rate of 2014-registered cars across recent test years:
| Test year | Pass rate | |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 71.1% -6.3 vs same-age |
|
| 2024 | 69.7% -5.9 vs same-age |
|
| 2025 | 70.7% -3.7 vs same-age |
The raw rate normally falls as cars age. The “vs same-age” figure compares this cohort with all UK cars registered in the same year, so normal ageing is not mistaken for a bad model year.

What mileage is too high for a 2014 Tourneo?
