2015 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · BC07 GRC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in its most recent test on 26 August 2025 at 98,724 miles. While the history shows a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by passes, the current lack of advisories or defects indicates that any previous mechanical or safety issues were addressed prior to the latest inspection. The trend suggests that the owner is proactive in rectifying faults once they are flagged, rather than allowing defects to accumulate over time. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 98,724 miles represents an annual average of approximately 9,000 miles, which aligns with typical UK usage for a family SUV. There is a notable data gap between the November 2022 test at 85,992 miles and the August 2024 test at 93,872 miles, where the vehicle covered roughly 8,000 miles over twenty-one months. However, the rapid accumulation of 852 miles between August 2024 and August 2025 shows the car has recently returned to a more regular driving schedule, which helps keep the drivetrain and braking components free from the seizing common in stationary vehicles. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failures in August 2024 and 2025, as the record provided does not detail the exact reasons for those rejections. Given the age and mileage of this Kuga, a thorough check of the suspension bushes and coil springs is essential, as these are common wear points on this model. The inspector should also verify the condition of the brake-related rubber hoses and the integrity of the exhaust system, as these areas often degrade as a vehicle approaches the 100,000-mile mark.
