2015 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · JH03 DON

The vehicle presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent string of clear passes over the last four years. The most recent MOT on 20 May 2025 at 79,224 miles resulted in a pass with zero recorded defects, confirming that the vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state. While the record shows a failed test on the same day as the pass, this is likely an administrative or testing anomaly rather than a mechanical failure, as no defects were listed against the vehicle. Accumulating 79,224 miles over an eleven-year lifespan averages to approximately 7,200 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this class. The mileage progression remains steady, with an increase of roughly 9,200 miles between the May 2024 and May 2025 tests. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has remained in regular operation rather than suffering from the long-term storage issues often associated with low-mileage examples, such as seized calipers or perished rubber components. Because the recent MOT history is devoid of advisories, the vehicle appears to have been maintained to a high standard by its previous keepers. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on common Ford Kuga failure points that may not be captured during a standard MOT, specifically checking for signs of oil leaks around the engine block and transmission housing. Verify the condition of the suspension bushes and the integrity of the coil springs, as these are frequent wear items on this chassis that can sometimes escape notice during a basic test. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or inner-face scoring, ensuring the vehicle tracks straight under heavy braking, as the MOT record provides no insight into the current remaining thickness of these critical friction components.
