FORD KUGA2014 · 2.0L Diesel

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 29 August 2025 at 88,043 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes over several years, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without chronic mechanical failures. The mileage pattern shows a significant and sudden increase in usage over the last two years. Between August 2023 and August 2024, the vehicle covered 20,732 miles, rising from 47,330 to 68,062 miles. This acceleration continued into the following year, adding another 20,000 miles by August 2025. While the overall average of 7,337 miles per year is typical for a 2014 model, the recent high-intensity use means wear on drivetrain components and consumables has likely accelerated recently. The absence of recorded defects or advisories across the history is unusual for a twelve year old Ford Kuga. The record shows no mentions of corrosion, suspension bush wear, or brake disc deterioration, which are common failure points for this chassis. The failures on 13 August 2025 and 16 August 2024 were resolved on the same or following day, though the lack of listed defects for those failures suggests they may have been minor administrative or lighting issues. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the chassis and suspension. Given the total lack of advisories over 40,000 miles of recent heavy use, it is prudent to check for underbody corrosion and the condition of the coil springs. Specifically, verify the depth of the tyre treads and the thickness of the brake pads, as these consumables will have seen significant wear during the high-mileage period between 2023 and 2025.
