2017 Ford Edge 2.0L Diesel · 61 KA

The 2017 Ford Edge presents a stable and highly commendable maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass at 82,005 miles during the April 2026 test. Recording zero defects across the most recent three annual inspections demonstrates consistent mechanical care and a lack of recurring faults. The vehicle currently sits in excellent roadworthiness standing, with no outstanding structural or mechanical advisories demanding immediate attention. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,100 miles annually. Between the March 2023 test at 49,042 miles and the April 2024 test at 59,635 miles, the car covered 10,593 miles, followed by 11,339 miles over the subsequent twelve months leading to the 2025 test. The most recent year saw a further 11,031 miles added before the 2026 pass. This steady, linear progression rules out prolonged periods of standing or sudden high-mileage abuse, suggesting regular, sustained use rather than neglect. A notable anomaly appears in the April 2024 record, where a failed test at 59,635 miles paradoxically lists no recorded defects. This likely indicates an aborted inspection or a same-day retest where the initial fault was rectified before the system logged a defect code, rather than a hidden mechanical failure, given the immediate clean pass recorded on the same date. Despite the pristine MOT record, a physical inspection remains prudent. Buyers should verify the condition of consumable components typical of an 82,000-mile SUV, specifically checking suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for wear. Tyre tread depth and exhaust emissions should also be physically assessed, as paper records cannot confirm the current state of these wearing parts.
