2012 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · CK62 ABF

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 27 August 2025 at 73,987 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the results of the previous years. This trend of clean passes suggests that the previous owners maintained the vehicle to a standard that prevented mechanical or structural failures from reaching the testing threshold. The mileage profile is notably low for a fourteen-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 5,285 miles per year. Between August 2024 and August 2025, the car covered 6,573 miles, which represents a slight increase in usage compared to the previous interval of 6,711 miles. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based parts and fluids. The data shows a stable and predictable usage pattern without any sudden periods of heavy strain or long-term neglect. Despite the pristine MOT record, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to low-mileage age effects. Check the suspension bushes, shock absorbers, and control arm bushings for signs of cracking or perishing, as these materials degrade over time regardless of distance driven. Examine the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs when vehicles sit stationary for extended periods. A close look at the chassis and underside for structural rust is also necessary to ensure that the structural integrity remains sound despite the lack of recorded advisories.
