2018 Ford Kuga 1.5L Petrol · FW14 SRW

The 2018 Ford Kuga presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 8 October 2025 at 58,037 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Prior annual examinations in October 2024 at 53,901 miles and December 2023 at 47,388 miles also passed clean. The vehicle shows no escalating faults across its recorded history. The mileage pattern sits at roughly 7,255 miles per year against an eight-year lifespan, a typical figure for this age of vehicle. Records show steady accumulation: 37,976 miles in December 2022, 47,388 by December 2023, 53,901 by October 2024, and 58,037 by October 2025. A single anomaly appears on 19 December 2023 when the car failed at 47,374 miles with no defects logged, then passed the next day at 47,388 miles, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue rather than mechanical fault. The data remains sparse and clean otherwise. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the absent advisories. The Kuga's MacPherson front struts and rear suspension bushes warrant checking for degradation, as the MOT record offers no visibility of wear below failure threshold. Brake discs and calipers should be measured for lip and binding, while underbody corrosion and exhaust emissions must be verified on a ramp. The clean pass sheet does not exempt the vehicle from consumable tyre and wiper replacement cycles.
