2021 Ford Kuga Vignale Phev CVT 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · 22 TOO

The Ford Kuga Vignale PHEV presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 24 February 2026 at 50,337 miles. The maintenance trend is stable with no advisories or defects logged across any test in the record. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical condition and no recurring faults requiring ongoing attention. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a five-year-old vehicle. The record shows 39,090 miles at the 15 March 2024 test, rising to 45,096 miles by 27 February 2025 and 50,337 miles by February 2026. This equates to roughly 5,000 to 6,000 miles per year between tests, below the 10,067 annual average implied by the age. The clean history with no corrosion, suspension, brake, or emission flags suggests the previous keeper maintained the car to a reasonable standard, though the single-day fail on 23 February 2026 at 50,324 miles with no defects recorded points to an administrative or unlogged minor issue rather than a mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity, suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low annual mileage may mask standing-time degradation such as perished rubber components or surface corrosion. The PHEV drivetrain and high-voltage battery cooling should be checked for fault codes not captured by MOT testing. No recurring advisories appear in the DVSA data, so no specific mechanical trend warrants concern. Verify service history and confirm the 23 February 2026 failure cause before purchase.
