2012 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · FN12 HHA

The current 2026-06-18 test is a PASSED MOT at 91,638 miles, confirming that the vehicle is currently roadworthy. The MOT history indicates a fluctuating maintenance pattern rather than a stable one, with the most recent test in July 2025 passing the vehicle at 91,638 miles without defects. This suggests that the vehicle has been operated in a manner that allows for consistent maintenance, but the sequence of results from 2021 to 2020 demonstrates a lack of consistent upkeep, particularly during the 2020-2021 period where a failed test occurred. The mileage trajectory reflects a significant gap in maintenance compared to the vehicle's age of 14 years. The vehicle has maintained approximately 6,546 miles per year, which is typical for a 2012 Ford Kuga, yet the data shows rapid accumulation of miles between 2020 and 2021. This period of accelerated mileage coincides with a failed MOT, implying that the vehicle may have been driven under conditions that accelerated wear on critical components. The absence of defects in the 2025-2021 records suggests that while the vehicle has been driven, the maintenance was not strictly adhered to, potentially leading to premature failure of suspension or drivetrain parts. Given the history of a failed MOT in 2021 and the general wear pattern observed, the buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and mechanical wear. The most likely issues to address include suspension bushings, coil springs, and brake disc condition, as the vehicle has failed twice on these components without defects recorded. A thorough inspection is required to verify that the car meets the 100% test standards, as the history indicates a lack of consistent maintenance, which increases the risk of hidden structural damage or corrosion.
