2017 Ford Kuga 1.5L Diesel · HK17 AEA

This Ford Kuga is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 4 June 2025 at 47,771 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. The vehicle has a clean record of passes dating back to May 2023, indicating a consistent level of mechanical integrity over the last three years. The mileage is notably low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,308 miles per year. Between the May 2023 test at 35,070 miles and the June 2025 test at 47,771 miles, the car covered 12,701 miles. This suggests light usage and a steady driving pattern rather than erratic bursts of high mileage or long periods of stagnation. The MOT history is unusually clean, showing no recorded advisories or defects across multiple years. While the record shows fails on 3 June 2025 and 14 May 2024, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues resolved instantly. There is no evidence of recurring faults regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished tyre rubber, seized brake calipers, or battery degradation. Check the date codes on the tyres and verify that the brake pedals feel firm, as the lack of recorded wear in the MOT history may simply reflect the low mileage rather than proactive replacement of consumables.
