FORD KUGA2018 · 1.5L Diesel

The 2018 Ford Kuga with 73,860 miles demonstrates stable roadworthiness, as evidenced by its most recent MOT on 2025-09-19, which passed without defects. All five consecutive annual tests from 2021 to 2025 recorded no failures, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical issues. The vehicle’s service history suggests responsible ownership, with no recurring faults or escalating concerns. The absence of advisories or critical failures in the latest inspection confirms it meets current safety standards. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging 9,232 miles annually. Each MOT was conducted within 12 months of the previous, with mileage increments between 12,000 and 13,000 miles, reflecting steady, regular use. No significant gaps or rapid accumulation are evident, which reduces concerns about neglected maintenance or extreme wear on components like tyres, brakes, or suspension. The clean record suggests the owner prioritized routine checks, though the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into minor wear patterns. A prospective buyer should physically inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as these often degrade over time without triggering MOT failures. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, particularly given the vehicle’s age. The body’s structural integrity and underbody corrosion, which can develop in older models, warrant close examination. While the MOT history shows no red flags, these components are critical for long-term reliability and safety, requiring hands-on assessment before purchase.
