2010 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · J26 BAE

The 2010 Ford Kuga presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 March 2026 at 102,637 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass on 8 January 2025 at 98,903 miles confirms the vehicle has cleared consecutive examinations without outstanding advisories. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical 6,415 miles per year for a sixteen-year-old vehicle. The record shows 87,569 miles at the January 2024 test, rising to 98,892 miles by January 2025 and 102,637 by March 2026, reflecting steady rather than sporadic use. A notable gap exists between the October 2022 pass at 81,907 miles and the January 2024 test, implying roughly fourteen months of unrecorded activity. The January 2025 failure on 7 January at 98,892 miles shows no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or presentational rejection rather than a mechanical fault, with the car passing cleanly the next day. No advisories or defects appear across the five recorded tests, so the history reveals no recurring suspension bushes wear, brake disc corrosion, exhaust emission breaches, or structural integrity concerns. The clean sheet implies previous owners kept basic consumables and mechanical items within test limits, though the sparse record limits insight into hidden wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of coil springs, subframe corrosion, and binding calipers given the vehicle's age and the untested 2022 to 2024 interval. Verify tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and underbody rust at 102,637 miles, as these consumables fall outside MOT failure thresholds until severely degraded.
