2019 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · FJ69 AWU

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean MOT record. The most recent test on 8 August 2024 at 119,786 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes in September 2023 and October 2022, suggesting the previous owner addressed mechanical issues before presenting the car for testing. The mileage is high for a seven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 17,112 miles per year. The data shows rapid accumulation, with 12,382 miles added between September 2023 and August 2024. Such high usage typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension bushings. The lack of any recorded advisories over this period is unusual for a high-mileage Ford Kuga, which often flags tyre wear or brake disc corrosion. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that typically degrade under high mileage but may not have triggered an MOT failure. Check the condition of the suspension coil springs and shock absorbers for leaks or sagging. Inspect the brake pads and discs for thinning, as the high mileage suggests they may be nearing the end of their service life despite the clean test history. Verify the service history to ensure the oil change intervals match the high annual mileage. While the MOT record is clean, it does not confirm the timing of belt replacements or fluid flushes. Examine the underbody for surface corrosion, particularly around the sills and rear subframe, to ensure the structural integrity remains sound given the vehicle's extensive road use.
