2020 Ford Puma ST-Line X First ED Mhev 1.0L Petrol · GS02 TAY

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with no failures recorded across four annual inspections and a clean pass achieved on 29 January 2026. The only mechanical irregularity appears in the January 2025 test, where advisories were issued for pitting and scoring on both the nearside and offside rear brake discs. The absence of these advisories in the latest test indicates that the issue has been addressed or no longer meets the threshold for notification. Covering 21,143 miles over approximately six years results in a low annual accumulation rate of roughly 3,524 miles. This usage profile generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and suspension bushings than is typical for a vehicle of this age. However, low-mileage usage can often lead to the specific type of brake disc corrosion noted in the 2025 record, as brake surfaces are more prone to oxidation when not subjected to frequent, high-temperature operation. During a physical inspection and test drive, focus should be placed on the braking performance to verify the resolution of the previously flagged rear disc wear. Listen for any grinding or scraping sounds from the rear axle and feel for pedal judder or vibrations during moderate to heavy braking. Ensuring the vehicle stops squarely without steering pull will confirm that the braking system is operating uniformly across both axles.
