2019 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · AP19 LXK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. While it passed its most recent test in April 2026 at 58,627 miles, this followed a significant failure just one day prior. That failure identified all four tyres at below the legal limit of 1.6mm alongside thin brake pads on both axles. This suggests the previous owner only addressed essential repairs when forced by an MOT failure rather than performing routine servicing between intervals. At 58,627 miles over seven years, the Kuga averages approximately 8,375 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns for a family vehicle. The mileage accumulation shows steady growth, with roughly 10,000 miles driven between the April 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 10,835 miles between April 2025 and April 2026. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, though the rapid wear on consumables in the final year indicates that service intervals may have been neglected. A buyer should closely inspect the braking system and suspension components. The record shows a history of pitted and scored rear brake discs dating back to 2023, followed by thin pads in 2026; you must verify if the discs were replaced alongside the pads or if they remain in thin. Given the 2025 advisory regarding perishing tyres and the 2026 failure for edge-wear, a physical check for uneven tyre wear across the current set is necessary to rule out alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that could cause premature rubber degradation.
