Our Verdict
A recommended purchase for those seeking
When inspecting this vehicle, check the nearside front alloy wheel to see if the buckled rim noted in the 2024 MOT advisory has been repaired or replaced. Ensure you have documentation for the rear shock absorber replacements carried out in September 2023 to confirm the work was completed to a professional standard.
Negotiate based on the current tyre tread and brake pad condition, as these are common failure points for this model according to aggregate data. Check that the registration plates now fully conform to UK standards following the 2023 failure.
The 999cc MHEV engine is designed for efficiency and is Euro 6 AP compliant. You can expect competitive fuel economy and relatively low annual road tax due to the mild-hybrid powertrain.
Insurance groups for the ST-Line X trim are typically mid-range. Combined with standard maintenance for a small petrol engine, the estimated annual running cost is approximately £1,200-£1,500, depending on the driver's annual mileage.
Focus on the suspension system; while the rear shock absorbers were replaced in 2023, it is worth checking for any new leaks or unusual noises over bumps. Inspect the nearside front alloy wheel for any remaining deformation or cracks resulting from the buckle noted in August 2024.
Additionally, check the brake pads and tyres, as these are the most frequent MOT failure reasons for the Puma across the wider fleet. Ensure all exterior lighting and the registration plates are in good order, referencing the previous failures in 2023.
This grey 2020 Ford Puma ST-Line X has covered 47,617 miles, which is slightly above the model average. Its MOT record shows consistent passes since 2023, following a single failure involving rear shock absorbers and number plate compliance. Recent tests in 2025 and 2026 were completed with no defects recorded.
The Ford Puma has a strong aggregate MOT pass rate of 91.8%, suggesting generally high reliability across the model range.
