2026 Ford Puma ST-Line Mhev Auto 1.0L Hybrid electric · JM70 ASH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 4 June 2026 at 17,035 miles. However, the maintenance trend indicates a recent lapse in attention to detail, as the car failed the test just one day prior at 17,031 miles. While the faults were rectified immediately to achieve a pass, the presence of multiple tyre-related failures suggests that the vehicle had not undergone a pre-test inspection prior to the official appointment. At approximately three years old, the recorded mileage of 17,035 miles represents a low average of roughly 5,600 miles per annum. This low usage profile typically suggests reduced wear on major mechanical components such as the drivetrain and suspension. However, the narrow gap between the failure and pass on 3 and 4 June 2026 shows that despite the low mileage, the vehicle may have been neglected regarding basic consumable maintenance until the point of the test itself. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the offside front tyre specifically, as the previous failure noted it was worn on the edge, which can indicate an alignment issue or faulty suspension bushes. The damage to the nearside front tyre, involving a cut reaching the cords, also necessitates a check for overall structural integrity of the remaining sidewalls. Given the low mileage, the brake discs should be inspected for signs of surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs on vehicles that sit for long periods without regular use.
