2019 Ford Kuga 1.5L Petrol · FJ69 OXF

The 2019 Ford Kuga presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 January 2026 at 51,293 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual tests show the same clean outcome. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-year DVSA history, so the vehicle shows no worsening or recurring defect pattern. Recorded mileage sits at 51,293 against a January 2026 test, equating to roughly 7,328 miles per year from first registration. The odometer moved from 26,792 miles at the June 2023 test to 34,399 by January 2024, then 43,010 at the failed-and-repassed January 2025 test, and 51,293 by January 2026. That is steady, age-typical accumulation with no abrupt gaps or high-use spikes. The single failure on 14 January 2025 at 43,010 miles carries no recorded defect, which points to an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault on the car. Given the absence of flagged wear across suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, the Kuga looks to have received consistent basic upkeep from its previous keepers. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody condition and suspension mounts, as MOT passes with no advisories do not capture incipient rust or worn rubber components below failure threshold. Verify the January 2025 failure reason with the DVSA portal before purchase, since the blank defect field leaves the cause unconfirmed. Otherwise, the clean test sequence and typical mileage suggest a low-risk used buy from a mechanical-records standpoint.
