2015 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · AE15 VPF

The 2015 Ford Kuga presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean pass recorded at the most recent test on 15 October 2025 at 31,700 miles. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration across the five-year MOT span, with every annual examination from 2022 through 2025 returning a pass and no advisories or defects logged by testers. A failed entry on 15 October 2025 at identical mileage preceded the same-day pass, indicating a clerical or administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault, as no defects were recorded on either certificate. Mileage accumulation sits well below typical averages for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record shows 25,793 miles at the 18 October 2022 test, rising to 27,517 by 23 October 2023, 29,573 by 17 October 2024, and 31,700 by 15 October 2025. That equates to roughly 2,000 miles per year, confirming light use with no sudden accumulation spikes or dormant gaps exceeding the annual cycle. The consistently low figures suggest a vehicle kept for short local journeys or extended periods off the road between tests. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs despite the absence of flagged advisories. Low-mileage Kugas of this generation are prone to perished rubber components and surface corrosion on subframes from standing moisture, neither of which a pass with no defects captures. Verify the 2025 fail reason at the DVSA portal, as the duplicated same-day entry warrants confirmation that no concealed brake or emissions fault triggered the rejection before the clean pass.
