2021 Ford Kuga Vignale Phev CVT 2.5L Hybrid electric · FD21 NNT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted on 17 April 2026 at 32,033 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor advisory regarding a cut offside front tyre. This follows two clean MOT records from 2024 and 2025, indicating that the vehicle has been maintained without significant mechanical or structural failures during recent examinations. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between the 2024 test at 20,556 miles and the 2025 test at 26,683 miles, the car covered 6,127 miles, showing steady and predictable usage. This relatively low annual mileage suggests less mechanical wear on high-stress components such as the CVT gearbox, brake assemblies, and suspension bushings compared to higher-mileage examples. Given the clean nature of the history, a buyer should focus on a physical inspection of the offside front tyre to ensure the cut has not progressed toward the structural cords. While the records show no history of binding brake calipers, worn bushes, or exhaust corrosion, the low mileage can sometimes lead to flat-spot tyres or brake disc oxidation if the vehicle sat stationary for long periods. A check of the hybrid battery health and cooling system remains appropriate for a PHEV model, as these are not covered by standard MOT testing protocols.
