2020 Ford Puma ST-Line 1.0L Petrol · BD70 AEJ

A consistent track record of clean MOT results defines this vehicle, with no recorded defects or advisories across its entire testing history, including the most recent pass on 25 August 2026. The absence of any flagged issues regarding structural integrity, braking systems, or emissions suggests a stable period of roadworthiness since its first recorded test in 2023. This lack of reported wear on components such as suspension bushes, brake pipes, or exhaust systems indicates that the vehicle has met all minimum regulatory standards without the presence of recurring mechanical faults. The recorded mileage of 28,080 miles indicates a low annual usage pattern of approximately 4,680 miles per year for a vehicle of this age. This level of accumulation is significantly lower than the UK average, which can imply less mechanical wear on drivetrain components, brake discs, and suspension linkages. However, such low annual mileage can also mean the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary, which may affect the condition of rubber seals, tyres, and fluid degradation, though no specific defects related to these items have been noted in the official DVSA records. Given the lack of recorded advisories, there are no specific mechanical defects to target for inspection; however, the low mileage profile warrants a focused physical check of consumables. During a test drive, pay close attention to the braking performance to ensure there is no pedal judder or pulling to one side, which would indicate uneven disc wear or binding calipers. Additionally, listen for any knocks or knocks from the suspension when traversing uneven surfaces, as low-use vehicles can sometimes experience stiffness in bushings or dampers despite the low mileage. The absence of reported oil misting or fluid leaks in the MOT history suggests the engine and gearbox seals are currently intact. It is still advisable to check the engine bay for any signs of weeping around gaskets and to verify the condition of the drive belts and hoses, which can perish over time when a vehicle is not driven frequently. Since the MOT history is entirely clear of emissions failures or lighting defects, the primary focus should remain on the physical condition of the tyres and the integrity of the underbody to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed during periods of inactivity.
