2017 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · AJ09 PAR

The 2017 Ford Kuga presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 October 2025 at 53,260 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Across every annual examination from 2021 through 2025 the vehicle cleared without a single advisory or failure, indicating consistent compliance with statutory test standards. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for a nine-year-old vehicle. The record shows 31,409 miles at the 19 October 2021 test, rising to 38,297 by 21 October 2022, 42,102 on 17 October 2023, 47,925 on 1 October 2024, and 53,260 on 7 October 2025. That equates to roughly 5,900 miles per year. The absence of any test gap and the steady year-on-year accumulation point to light, regular use rather than neglect or prolonged storage. No recurring faults, corrosion issues, suspension wear, or brake defects appear in the history to direct a buyer toward specific mechanical concerns. The clean sheet across five successive tests suggests previous owners kept the Kuga to a sound maintenance routine. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, brake discs, and underbody structural integrity, as the MOT record does not capture gradual consumable degradation between tests. Given the low mileage and unbroken pass record, the Kuga shows no red flags from the official data. Pre-purchase checks should confirm actual odometer condition, tyre sidewall age, and fluid service history, since these fall outside MOT scope yet matter on a lightly used older vehicle.
