2010 Ford Kuga 2.5L Petrol · ET59 ADV

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 22 July 2025 at 52,165 miles, confirming its roadworthiness. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the most recent test resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. While the vehicle failed its initial assessment on the same day as the pass in both 2023 and 2025, the lack of recorded failures suggests these were likely administrative or minor rectifications performed on-site rather than indicative of chronic mechanical failure. This 2010 Ford Kuga has covered only 52,165 miles over sixteen years, averaging approximately 3,260 miles per annum. This low usage pattern is consistent across the provided history, with the odometer increasing by only 1,139 miles between July 2023 and July 2025. Such limited mileage often points to a vehicle that has spent significant periods stationary, which can lead to specific issues like seized brake components, perished rubber seals, or battery degradation due to infrequent charging cycles. Prospective buyers should prioritise a thorough physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as rubber components can become brittle and crack during long periods of inactivity. Check the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or pitting, which frequently occur on vehicles that are not driven regularly. Given the age of the vehicle, confirm the condition of the exhaust system and check the underside for structural corrosion, as the MOT record does not detail the state of these components beyond the pass criteria. Ensure the engine bay shows no signs of fluid leaks, as seals may have dried out during the vehicle's extended periods of storage.
