2010 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · NT60 NJT

The 2010 Ford Kuga presents a consistent maintenance record, having passed its most recent inspection in October 2025 at 72,933 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates that the vehicle is currently in a roadworthy condition regarding its safety and emissions standards. The failure recorded in September 2024 at 69,382 miles appears to be an isolated incident, as the subsequent pass on the same day suggests a proactive maintenance approach that addresses identified faults immediately before they escalate into recurring issues. At 72,933 miles, the vehicle has covered significantly less distance than the national average for a 16-year-old car. This low mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it often introduces risks related to age-related degradation such as rubber components, suspension bushes, and seals drying out over time. The mileage intervals between the 2022 and 2025 tests show a steady usage pattern of roughly 3,000 to 4,000 miles per annum, which supports the claim of light operation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and the condition of the low-pressure rubber components. While the MOT history shows no current corrosion, low-mileage vehicles are prone to surface rust in sills and wheel arches that may not always trigger a failure until they become structural. Check the braking system for binding or pitted discs, as infrequent use can lead to uneven wear and seizing despite the low mileage figure.
