FORD KUGA2019 · 2.0L DIESEL

The 2019 Ford Kuga presents a clean MOT record with no advisories or failures across all four tests. The most recent test on 21 November 2025 at 27,797 miles passed with zero defects, confirming the vehicle met DVSA standards for brakes, suspension, emissions, and structural integrity at that point. This is a stable, well-maintained trend spanning the entire recorded history. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle. Between the first test on 17 December 2022 at 13,664 miles and the most recent on 21 November 2025 at 27,797 miles, the car covered 14,133 miles over nearly three years, averaging roughly 4,700 miles annually. The gap between the 2024 test at 19,453 miles and the 2025 test at 27,797 miles shows a single-year jump of 8,344 miles, which is higher than the earlier pattern but still modest overall. The vehicle has not been standing idle for long periods, and the gradual accumulation suggests regular rather than sporadic use. With no recurring faults on record, there are no specific mechanical red flags to prioritise. A buyer should still conduct a thorough in-person inspection focused on components that age regardless of mileage. Check the underside for corrosion, particularly around suspension mounting points, subframes, and brake lines, as salt exposure accumulates over seven years even on low-mileage cars. Inspect tyre dates and sidewalls for perishing, and examine brake discs and pads for uneven wear that could indicate sticking calipers or infrequent use. The suspension bushes and coil springs deserve attention, as rubber deteriorates with time rather than mileage. The clean MOT history is encouraging, but it only reflects the vehicle's condition on four specific days. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic remains essential to verify the structural and mechanical integrity that no paper record can fully guarantee.
