2021 Ford Puma Titanium Mhev 1.0L Petrol · DN70 VEH

The vehicle remains roadworthy as of its most recent MOT on 2025-08-26, with no defects recorded at 14,828 miles. The maintenance trend is stable — all three recorded tests passed without issue, indicating consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The absence of advisories or failures across these tests suggests the owner has maintained the car to a standard that meets UK roadworthiness requirements, with no signs of neglect or recurring faults. Mileage progression shows a low annual average of approximately 2,966 miles over five years, which is notably conservative for a 2021 model. The jump from 5,234 miles in September 2023 to 9,450 miles in September 2024 — a 4,216-mile increase in 12 months — is the most significant accumulation, followed by a further 5,378 miles to reach 14,828 miles by August 2025. This pattern implies the vehicle was likely stationary for extended periods early in its life, then saw more active use in the 2024–2025 window. Low mileage overall reduces wear on high-stress components, but also raises questions about potential inactivity-related issues such as battery health, brake caliper binding, or suspension bushing degradation. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should inspect the suspension system closely — particularly the front and rear bushes and coil springs — as low mileage can mask stiffness or wear from prolonged inactivity. Brake components, especially the rear calipers, warrant attention given the potential for binding if the vehicle has sat idle for long periods. The exhaust system and underbody should be checked for corrosion, as low mileage doesn’t eliminate the risk of rust in damp or coastal environments. Tyre condition and tread depth should also be verified, as even low-mileage vehicles can suffer from uneven wear or sidewall degradation if not driven regularly. No structural faults were flagged, but a thorough visual inspection of the chassis rails and wheel arches is prudent.
