2015 FORD KUGA2.0L Diesel

The 2015 Ford Kuga demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its most recent MOT on 2025-08-13 at 80,849 miles, which passed with no defects. However, a prior failed test on 2024-08-21 at 75,010 miles—just one mile lower than the subsequent passing test on 2024-08-22—suggests potential inconsistency in the inspection process or minor unresolved issues. No defects were recorded in either test, indicating the vehicle has met legal standards in recent years, though the abrupt transition from failure to pass raises questions about the nature of the initial failure. The vehicle’s mileage of 80,849 miles aligns with an average annual usage of 7,350 miles, consistent with its 11-year age. A two-year gap between the 2022-08-31 tests—both at 66,628 miles—shows no immediate wear concerns, while the 2024-08-22 pass at 75,020 miles confirms continued compliance. The lack of recurring defects in the record suggests no systemic mechanical or structural issues, though the 2024 failure without recorded faults implies a possible oversight or minor fault that was rectified. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s suspension components, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, given the age and mileage, and inspect brake discs and calipers for uneven wear. The absence of corrosion or structural defects in the MOT history is reassuring, but a physical inspection is recommended to confirm the condition of tyres, exhaust emissions, and fluid leaks. The vehicle’s maintenance pattern reflects routine compliance, though the 2024 failure warrants scrutiny to ensure no underlying issues were overlooked.
