2021 Ford Puma ST-Line Mhev 1.0L Petrol · HT71 ACY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean pass on December 1, 2025 at 51,737 miles. The maintenance trend appears consistent, despite an anomalous failure recorded on November 29, 2025 at the same mileage. Since no defects were logged for that specific failure, it likely represents an administrative error or a minor presentation issue that was rectified immediately before the successful retest, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,300 miles per annum. Between the November 2024 test at 28,850 miles and the December 2025 test at 51,737 miles, the car covered over 22,000 miles in thirteen months. This indicates regular road use which is generally beneficial for the MHEV system and braking components to prevent seal degradation and brake caliper seizing often associated with long stationary periods. Because the MOT history shows no recurring advisories regarding structural corrosion or mechanical wear, the physical inspection should focus on verifying the current state of consumables not captured by the tester. A buyer should check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as the recent mileage mileage begins to put standard stress on these rubber components. Given the clean records, there are no immediate red flags regarding binding calipers or exhaust leaks, but a visual check of the brake discs for uneven wear remains standard practice.
