2011 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · CE61 ACF

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-07-07 at 120,943 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. Previous tests from 2024-07-03 and 2023-07-06 also showed passes, though two failures occurred on the same dates with identical mileages (115,428 and 106,148 miles), though no defects were logged. This suggests the failures may have been administrative or procedural rather than mechanical, as no issues were flagged in subsequent passes. The absence of recorded defects in the last three tests implies the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards. The mileage of 120,943 miles over 15 years aligns with an average annual usage of 8,063 miles, typical for its age. The MOTs are spaced consistently, with intervals of roughly 12 months, reflecting regular maintenance. No significant gaps or rapid mileage spikes are evident, though the 2023-07-06 test at 106,151 miles and the 2024-07-03 test at 115,429 miles show a 9,278-mile increase over 12 months, which is within normal parameters. The clean record of no defects in the last three tests suggests the vehicle has not exhibited recurring mechanical issues requiring repair. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often degrade over time in older vehicles. The brake system, including calipers and discs, should be inspected for wear, given the vehicle’s age. While no corrosion or structural issues were noted in the MOT history, a thorough check of the exhaust system and underbody for rust is recommended, as these are common concerns for 15-year-old vehicles. The lack of recorded defects does not eliminate the need for a physical inspection, as some issues may not trigger MOT failures but could affect long-term reliability.
