2015 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · JR08 AUG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent MOT on 5 March 2026 at 82,731 miles. While the record indicates a failed test on the same day, the absence of recorded defects suggests this was likely an administrative error or a minor rectification handled immediately at the testing station. The lack of any recorded advisories over the past three years indicates that the previous owner maintained the vehicle to a high standard, with no recurring mechanical failures or degradation of safety-critical components. The current mileage of 82,731 miles over an eleven-year lifespan averages approximately 7,521 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for this class of vehicle. The intervals between tests show consistent annual usage, with the exception of a slightly shorter gap between July 2023 and March 2024. This consistent accumulation of mileage suggests the car has been used regularly rather than left standing for extended periods, which generally helps prevent issues such as seized brake calipers, perished rubber seals, or premature battery failure. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the suspension components and the exhaust system, as these are common wear points for a Ford Kuga of this age that may not always trigger an MOT advisory until they reach a critical state. Although the MOT history is clean, verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these consumables may be nearing the end of their service life despite passing the most recent inspection. Check the underside for any signs of surface corrosion on the subframes and ensure that all electrical systems and dashboard warning lights function as intended during a cold start.
