2017 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · YK66 ACA

The 2017 Ford Kuga remains roadworthy based on its most recent MOT on 2025-10-10 at 69,170 miles, which passed without defects. The maintenance trend shows stability over the past four years, with no recurring mechanical issues flagged. Two consecutive passes in 2023 and 2024, followed by a clean 2025 test, indicate consistent compliance with safety standards. The single failed MOT on 2024-10-17 at 64,046 miles recorded no defects, suggesting it may have been an administrative error or unrelated to mechanical failure. The vehicle’s mileage of 69,170 miles aligns with an average annual usage of 7,686 miles, reflecting typical wear for its age. No significant gaps in testing exist, and the 2023-2025 records show steady progression without abrupt mileage spikes. The 2022-10-31 test at 53,885 miles and 2023-10-27 test at 59,392 miles confirm gradual accumulation, with no evidence of excessive strain on components like suspension or drivetrain. A buyer should verify the condition of the braking system, as repeated MOTs without brake-related defects may mask subtle issues like worn calipers or uneven disc wear. Inspect the exhaust system for corrosion, given the vehicle’s age, and check for rust on underbody panels, as MOT records do not explicitly confirm structural integrity. No advisories on tyres or suspension bushes are noted, but visual checks remain essential for hidden damage or uneven wear.
