2014 Ford Kuga 1.6L Petrol · MK64 AEA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 25 June 2026 at 64,064 miles which returned no recorded defects. This indicates that the current owner is actively addressing mechanical issues identified in previous years. The maintenance trend has improved significantly, moving from minor brake and visibility failures in earlier years to a completely clean sheet in the last two testing cycles. The mileage pattern is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage over time, with a progression from 16,396 miles in August 2017 to 64,064 miles in June 2026. This low-frequency use suggests less mechanical strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the long intervals between tests can sometimes mask the degradation of rubber-based parts or brake seals due to age-related perish not captured by a standard MOT test-run. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, as the history flagged thin pads in both 2017 and 2021. While these appear to be resolved, the tester should check for pitting on the brake discs or seized calipers given the vehicle's age. The recurring presence of a nail in the nearside rear tyre between 2022 and 2025 suggests a history of driving over debris, so a thorough check of the current tyre tread depth and sidew integrity is essential. Additionally, given the low mileage, inspecting the chassis for any signs of surface corrosion or rust is wise to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from sitting during periods of inactivity.
