2020 Ford Puma ST-Line Mhev 1.0L Petrol · EF20 AYV

The 2020 Ford Puma ST-Line MHEV presents a stable and unblemished roadworthiness record, with its most recent MOT on 13 August 2025 at 36,614 miles passing without a single defect or advisory. This clean sheet, repeated across all three recorded tests, indicates a vehicle that has consistently met the required structural and mechanical standards. The maintenance trend is firmly stable, showing no signs of deterioration or recurring faults. However, the current MOT certificate expires in August 2026, so a fresh test is imminent, and a buyer should factor that into the purchase timeline. Mileage accumulation has been remarkably consistent and typical for a car of this age. Between the August 2023 test at 20,236 miles and the July 2024 test at 28,232 miles, the car covered 7,996 miles in just under 12 months. The following 13 months to August 2025 saw a further 8,382 miles added, bringing the total to 36,614. This equates to roughly 8,000 miles per year, a pace that suggests regular, mixed-use driving rather than prolonged standing or excessively high motorway mileage. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the record that would hint at a dormant period or a recent high-stress journey. With no historical defects to guide a targeted inspection, a pre-purchase examination should focus on the condition of consumable and wear components that are not always captured by an MOT pass. Pay close attention to the tyres for uneven wear or cracking, the brake discs and pads for lipping or uneven deposits, and the suspension bushes and dampers for any deterioration that might only manifest as a slight knock over low-speed bumps. The exhaust system, particularly the flexi-pipe and mounting rubbers, deserves a careful look, as does the condition of the underbody for corrosion that could become a structural concern in future years. The absence of advisories is reassuring, but a hands-on inspection remains essential to verify that this clean paperwork translates into a well-maintained car.
