2021 Ford Puma ST-Line Vignale Mhev 1.0L Petrol · BJ04 OLZ

The vehicle maintains an exemplary roadworthiness status with a perfectly consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 1 May 2026 at 17,750 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, mirroring the results of the previous two years. This trend indicates a stable mechanical condition where the vehicle remains operating within manufacturer specifications without signs of recurring mechanical failure or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,550 miles per annum. Between the 2024 test at 11,876 miles and the 2025 test at 14,798 miles, the car covered just 2,922 miles, followed by another 2,952 miles in the year leading to the latest test. While this low usage suggests minimal wear on drivetrain components and engine-related parts, it also raises the possibility of component stagnation if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. Because the MOT history shows no recorded faults, a physical inspection should focus on the specific risks of low-mileage use. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs when a vehicle is not driven frequently enough to clear the rotors. Examine the tyres for early sidewall cracking or flat spotting, as rubber compounds age over time regardless of tread depth. Additionally, verify the service history to ensure that oil changes and fluid flushes have followed time-based intervals, as the MOT test only checks for safety and emissions rather than preventative maintenance.
