2014 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · MK64 AEM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing inspections. The most recent test conducted on 7 July 2025 at 83,713 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets all legal and safety standards. Following a brief failure in July 2024, the subsequent re-test and following-year pass suggest that the owner is proactive in addressing identified technical faults. The mileage pattern reflects low to moderate usage, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per annum over the twelve-year period. Between July 2022 at 64,634 miles and July 2025 at 83,713 miles, the vehicle covered 19,079 miles, showing a steady usage rate. The gap of 7,174 miles between the June 2023 and July 2024 tests indicates normal annual activity, while the overall consistency of annual testing suggests a regular regime of mechanical oversight rather than long periods of stationary neglect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failure in July 2024 at 77,080 miles, although the record does not specify the exact mechanical fault. Given the age of the Ford Kuga, a close look at the suspension rubber components, particularly control arm bushes, is advisable as these parts often degrade over time regardless of mileage. Inspect the front brake discs for signs of surface pitting and the exhaust system for corrosion, as lower-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from accelerated oxidation if the components are not used frequently.
