2023 Ford Kuga ST-Line X Edition HEV CVT 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · N22 MBY

The vehicle maintains a high roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean MOT history across five consecutive tests. The most recent inspection on 1 August 2025 at 96,411 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This consistency suggests that the mechanical and structural components have consistently met DVSA standards without the recurring failures or progressive corrosion common in high-mileage vehicles. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a three-year-old vehicle, averaging over 32,000 miles per annum. Data shows a consistent and rapid increase in usage, climbing from 78,722 miles in July 2021 to 96,411 miles by August 2025. This pattern indicates the car was likely used for long-distance motorway travel or fleet work rather than short urban trips. While the clean record suggests diligent mechanical upkeep, the sheer volume of miles places significantly higher strain on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking system compared to typical private use patterns. Given the high-intensity usage, an in-person inspection must focus on components susceptible to accelerated wear. A buyer should scrutinise the condition of the control arm bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of fatigue or leaking. The braking system requires a close look for uneven disc wear or thinning pads, as high-frequency mileage often leads to thermal stress on these components. Additionally, while the MOT shows no structural issues, verifying the service history is vital to ensure the hybrid system and CVT have been maintained according to the specific intervals required for such high annual mileage.
