2021 Ford Puma ST-Line Vignale Mhev 1.0L Petrol · EP21 CCD

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with only minor, non-structural defects appearing in its history. The latest pass on 3 February 2026 followed a same-day failure caused by an incorrectly aimed offside headlamp and an ineffective nearside windscreen wiper. These issues are typical of wear-and-tear consumables and simple adjustments, indicating a stable trend in the vehicle's mechanical state over the last few years. The recorded mileage of 44,452 miles over approximately five years represents an average annual accumulation of roughly 8,890 miles. This usage profile is typical for a vehicle of this age, suggesting that wear on the drivetrain, brake components, and suspension linkages is likely proportional to standard road use. There are no significant gaps in the testing history or sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest unusual operational stress or periods of prolonged inactivity. Attention should be paid to the front axle alignment, as a 2024 advisory noted slightly worn edges on the offside front tyre treads. On a test drive, the vehicle should be monitored for any steering pull or a tendency to drift to one side when the steering wheel is neutral on a straight stretch of road. A physical inspection of the current tyre wear patterns is necessary to confirm whether this alignment issue was rectified or if it persists. While the MOT history is relatively clean, the buyer should verify the current condition of the windscreen wipers and the correct orientation of the headlamp beams to ensure the February 2026 failures were fully resolved. During the drive, listen for any abnormal knocks or clicks from the suspension over bumps and feel for any judder through the brake pedal to ensure that the components remain within operational tolerances, despite the absence of recorded failures in these areas.
