2013 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · GN13 AAO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a clean testing record over the last two years. The most recent inspection conducted on 21 November 2025 at 130,040 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and emissions standards. This follows two consecutive years of clean passes in 2024 and 2023, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have maintained a consistent standard recently. The mileage pattern aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between November 2022 at 99,767 miles and November 2024 at 119,633 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 20,000 miles, showing steady operational use. The recent interval of 10,407 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests further confirms this consistent usage pattern without evidence of long periods of neglect that often lead to seized components or perished seals. While the recent history is clean, the failure on 22 November 2023 at 110,426 miles indicates a specific issue that required rectification before the successful retest. Because the record does not detail the nature of that specific failure, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of common Kuga wear points, such as suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust corrosion. Given the 130,000-mile mark, checking for structural rust on the chassis and evaluating the condition of the brake discs is essential to ensure no hidden age-related degradation is developing between the annual test intervals.
