2019 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · BE06 NJE

The Ford Kuga stands roadworthy as of the latest test on 22 December 2025 at 42,039 miles, roughly seven months before the present date, where the tester recorded no defects. Maintenance trend is stable across the available history. The December 2023 pass at 30,094 miles, the December 2024 pass at 36,090 miles and the December 2025 pass all show zero advisories on suspension, brakes, corrosion or emissions. Two anomalous fail entries appear on 22 December 2025 at 42,038 miles and 3 December 2024 at 36,090 miles, each logged with no defects yet followed by a pass within one day at near identical mileage. That pattern points to administrative or procedural anomalies rather than mechanical deterioration. Mileage accumulation matches expectation for a seven year old vehicle. The record charts 30,094 miles in December 2023, 36,090 miles in December 2024 and 42,039 miles in December 2025, equating to steady yearly gains near 6,000 miles. No gap or sudden surge suggests neglect or heavy commercial use. Sparse three year coverage implies prior keepers performed modest private motoring and respected the annual test schedule. The same day fail then pass with no fault entered indicates the owners acted promptly to resolve any paperwork or presentation query, a sign of attentive custodianship. A buyer should still arrange a hands on inspection despite the clean ledger. The MOT never flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers or structural rust, yet age related fatigue can escape detection between tests. Check underbody for corrosion, measure brake disc thickness and scrutinise exhaust emissions equipment. Confirm the reason for those no defect failures directly with DVSA to exclude clerical error. Verify tyre tread and wiper blades though such consumables likely saw proactive replacement given the absence of advisories.
