2019 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · FH19 VHM

The 2019 Ford Kuga presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 21 July 2025 at 47,363 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the full recorded history, with every annual test from 2022 through 2025 resulting in a pass and no advisories raised. One anomaly appears on 21 July 2025, where a failure was logged at the same mileage with no defects recorded before the subsequent pass on the same day, suggesting an administrative or procedural error at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. The mileage pattern aligns with typical use for a seven-year-old vehicle. The record shows 28,850 miles on 15 July 2022, rising to 36,800 miles on 7 August 2023, then 41,827 miles on 30 July 2024, and 47,363 miles on 21 July 2025. This equates to an average annual accumulation of roughly 6,766 miles, with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps that would imply irregular servicing or prolonged standing. The clean test sequence across these dates indicates the previous keeper maintained basic statutory compliance, though the absence of advisories means wear items were either within limits or not closely noted by testers. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the unblemished record. The MOT data shows no flagged concerns with suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, so no recurring fault pattern exists to target. Given the Kuga's age, examine underside structural integrity for early rust, check front suspension arm bushes for cracking, and measure remaining brake disc thickness and caliper operation. Verify the 21 July 2025 failure entry with DVSA to confirm it carries no hidden defect code before completing purchase.
