2020 Ford Puma ST-Line X First ED Mhev 1.0L Petrol · DT69 HMV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend has shifted from a clean record to one showing early signs of component degradation. The most recent test on 27 January 2026 at 35,480 miles resulted in a pass, but the tester flagged both the nearside and offside rear inner brake discs as worn, pitted, or scored. While these did not cause a failure, they represent the first recorded defects in the vehicle's history. The mileage pattern is consistently low for a six-year-old car, averaging roughly 5,913 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has increased recently, rising from 6,599 miles between January 2023 and January 2024 to 8,946 miles between January 2024 and January 2025. The most recent interval saw the highest jump, with 8,928 miles added in a single year. This suggests the car is being used more intensively now than in its first three years of service. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system. Pitting and scoring on the rear discs often occur when a vehicle sits idle for long periods or suffers from seized calipers, which is common in low-mileage examples. The presence of these advisories suggests the rear brakes are reaching the end of their effective life and may require replacement soon to avoid further deterioration. Beyond the brakes, the MOT history is exceptionally clean. There are no mentions of suspension bush wear, coil spring fractures, or structural corrosion across any of the four tests. The absence of previous advisories indicates a well-maintained vehicle, provided the current brake issues are addressed.
