2020 Ford Kuga ST-Line Phev CVT 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · KM70 AEF

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean mechanical record. The most recent MOT on 25 July 2025 at 27,987 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the history shows two instances of initial failure on the same day as the pass, specifically on 29 August 2023 and 25 July 2025, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues rectified instantly during the test. The mileage is notably low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,664 miles per year. The distance increased by 9,310 miles between the August 2023 test at 12,948 miles and the September 2024 test at 22,258 miles. However, usage dropped significantly in the following year, with only 5,729 miles added by July 2025. This pattern indicates a shift toward lighter use or potential periods of inactivity. Because the MOT history is devoid of advisories or failures related to suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion, there are no recurring mechanical trends to flag. The absence of any recorded wear on consumables over three years of testing is unusual and suggests either a very gentle driving style or a rigorous service regime. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade during low-mileage use or long periods of standing. Check for brake caliper binding and inspect the tyre sidewalls for flat spots or age-related cracking. Given this is a PHEV, verifying the health of the 12V battery and the hybrid battery system is advisable, as low-mileage electric drivetrains can suffer from underuse.
