2012 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · AY62 YTM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having maintained a clean record for the last two years. The most recent inspection conducted in December 2025 at 125,970 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and environmental standards. This follows a period of consistent passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the previous owners have addressed necessary maintenance items before they escalated into MOT test failures. At 14 years old, the 2012 Kuga has averaged approximately 9,000 miles per year, which aligns closely with typical UK usage for a vehicle of this age. The mileage data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 9,000 miles recorded between the November 2024 and December 2025 tests. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle is used for regular driving rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the condition of rubber components, seals, and braking systems. While the recent history is clean, the failure recorded in November 2023 at 107,167 miles indicates that a mechanical issue required attention at that time. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and bushes, as these are common points of wear on the Kuga at this mileage bracket. Given the age of the vehicle, checking the chassis for corrosion around the rear arches and mounting points is essential to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite no issues being flagged in the recent advisories.
