2015 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · JR10 COO

The 2015 Ford Kuga with 91,414 miles shows a stable roadworthiness trend based on its most recent MOT, which passed on 2025-11-28 with no defects recorded. However, the vehicle has not undergone an MOT since this date, and the current date of 2026-07-13 means the last test is over 10 months old. This absence of recent testing raises concerns about compliance and potential undetected issues. Previous MOTs in 2024 and 2023 also passed without defects, but the repeated failures on the same mileage in 2025-11-27 and 2025-11-28—despite no recorded defects—suggest inconsistencies in the testing process or administrative errors. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging 8,310 miles annually. From 77,537 miles in 2023 to 91,414 miles in 2025, the increase of 13,877 miles over two years reflects steady, predictable wear. No significant gaps or rapid accumulation are evident, and the absence of recurring defects in passed tests indicates no systemic mechanical failures. However, the lack of detailed defect reports in failed MOTs limits insight into potential underlying issues. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension components, particularly the rear suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common wear points in vehicles of this age. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for binding or uneven wear, as these can develop without triggering MOT failures. Structural corrosion, especially in the underbody or chassis, warrants scrutiny, as it may not be flagged in routine tests. The vehicle’s maintenance history suggests no critical risks, but the expired MOT status necessitates immediate retesting before road use.
