2025 Ford Puma ST-Line X Mhev 1.0L Hybrid electric · G11 KAH

There is currently no official DVSA MOT history available for this vehicle, which is expected given its 2025 registration date as the first statutory inspection is not due until 2028. Consequently, it is impossible to establish a maintenance trend or identify recurring mechanical failures through official government records. The roadworthiness of the vehicle must therefore be verified through the presence of a complete manufacturer service history and the validity of the remaining factory warranty. The recorded mileage is currently unknown, preventing a definitive analysis of the annual usage rate or the identification of any abnormal mileage accumulation. From a mechanical perspective, the lack of data means the buyer must determine whether the vehicle has been subjected to high-stress urban stop-start cycles or lower-wear motorway mileage. Such a distinction is critical for a mild-hybrid powertrain, as frequent short trips can impact the efficiency of the MHEV system and lead to premature carbon buildup within the engine. Given the absence of MOT defects, the physical inspection should focus on verifying that the vehicle has adhered to Ford's prescribed service intervals. A thorough examination of the tyre treads is essential to identify uneven wear patterns, which would indicate a need for wheel alignment or suspension bush replacement. The buyer should also inspect the tyre sidewalls for any signs of perishing or cracking, particularly if the car has spent extended periods stationary, and check the brake discs for heavy surface corrosion or binding calipers that could impede performance. Attention should be paid to the health of the 12V battery and the integration of the mild-hybrid system, ensuring there are no warning lights or erratic electrical behavior during the start-stop sequence. During a test drive, listen for any unusual knocks or clunks from the suspension and ensure the steering is precise and free from vibration. Finally, verify that all calendar-based fluid changes have been performed, as oil and coolant can degrade over time regardless of the mileage covered, potentially compromising long-term engine reliability.
