2019 Ford Kuga 1.5L Petrol · EP19 OGF

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean MOT pass on August 27, 2025, at 50,449 miles. This result indicates that the mechanical and safety concerns identified in the previous year have been addressed and rectified. While the history shows a period of reactive maintenance, the lack of defects in the most recent test suggests the vehicle is currently maintained to a functional standard for road use. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use domestic vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. Between August 2022 and August 2023, the car covered 10,406 miles, followed by a similar interval of 10,221 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests. This steady usage suggests regular operation rather than long periods of standing which often benefits component health. The total distance of 50,449 miles remains relatively low for the drivetrain and suspension compared to high-mileage counterparts. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system, given the September 2024 failure at 43,174 miles where both front brake pads were found at less than 1.5mm. This failure indicates the previous owner waited until components reached a critical failure point rather than performing preventative maintenance. The 2024 record also flagged three tyres worn to the legal limit with edge wear, which points toward alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. A physical inspection should verify that current tyre wear is uniform and check that the front brake discs are not thin or scored from the previous pad wear.
