2014 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · BD14 VUB

This Ford Kuga presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 28 November 2025 at 103,485 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This continues a consistent trend of fault-free inspections dating back to March 2022, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has avoided the common degradation typical of this model. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's twelve-year age, averaging roughly 8,624 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between April 2023 at 70,895 miles and December 2024 at 93,195 miles, where the car covered over 22,000 miles in twenty months. Despite this period of heavier use, the vehicle maintained a clean MOT record, indicating that the mechanical components handled the increased load without failure. The absence of any advisories or failures over the last five years is rare for a car of this vintage. There are no recorded issues regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion, nor any mentions of exhaust emissions failures. This lack of data on wear-and-tear items suggests the previous owner likely replaced consumables like tyres and brake pads as part of a preventative maintenance schedule rather than waiting for MOT failure. A physical inspection should still focus on areas the MOT tester may overlook or that do not trigger a failure. Check for chassis corrosion in the sills and rear subframe, as these are common weak points for Fords of this era. Verify the service history for oil changes and timing belt replacements, as the MOT record confirms roadworthiness but does not guarantee the internal health of the engine or drivetrain.
