Our Verdict
Exercise caution before purchasing this
When inspecting this specific Kuga, you should prioritise a detailed check of the braking system. The MOT history shows front brake discs were flagged as pitted or scored in both 2024 and 2025, and rear components were flagged in 2022. Ensure that all discs and pads have been replaced recently and are not showing signs of uneven wear.
Additionally, pay close attention to the tyres. This vehicle has a history of tyres being worn close to the legal limit or having cuts, most recently on the nearside and offside rear tyres in March 2026. Check the tread depth across all four tyres and look for signs of uneven wear which could indicate alignment issues. Ask the seller for a service history to see if these wear items are being addressed according to a schedule or only when they fail an MOT.
As a 1.5L petrol model, this Kuga typically sits in a moderate insurance group and offers reasonable fuel economy for a compact SUV. Tax bands will vary based on the specific CO2 emissions, but Euro 6 compliance helps with urban driving regulations.
Maintenance costs for this model often involve routine replacement of consumables like brake pads, discs, and tyres, which have been frequent points of note in this vehicle's MOT record. You should budget for these periodic replacements. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, is approximately £1,400-£1,700.
Start by inspecting the tyres. Given the 2024 and 2026 MOT records highlighted multiple tyres being worn close to the legal limit or having cuts, check the brand and condition of the current set. Look for any uneven wear patterns on the edges, which was a specific failure point in the March 2026 test.
Next, examine the braking system. The MOT history shows a pattern of pitting and scoring on the brake discs (noted in 2022, 2024, and 2025). Check the thickness of the pads and the surface quality of the discs. Finally, because this is a 1.5L petrol engine, ensure the service history confirms oil changes have been performed regularly to maintain engine health.
This 2019 red Ford Kuga has covered 52,725 miles since its first registration in December 2019. The MOT history shows a trend of wear-related advisories, specifically concerning tyres and brake discs, which have appeared in four of the five recorded tests. While the vehicle has passed all tests to date, the frequency of these issues warrants a thorough mechanical inspection.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 84% MOT pass rate, with common failure points being headlamps, tyres, and brake pads.
