2015 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · KN65 AEA

This 2015 Ford Kuga shows a stable roadworthiness trend over its MOT history, with the most recent test on 2025-01-10 at 114,207 miles passing without any defects. The absence of advisories or repeated failures in the last two tests suggests the vehicle has undergone consistent maintenance, though the duplicate entry for the 2023-06-01 test—one marked as failed despite no defects recorded—indicates a potential administrative error rather than a mechanical issue. The vehicle’s current MOT is just over a year old, which is standard for a car of this age, though it would now be due for testing again by mid-2026. The mileage progression reveals a steady accumulation of approximately 10,382 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age and usage pattern. There are no significant gaps in service intervals, though the jump from 92,624 miles in June 2022 to 113,325 miles in June 2023—covering roughly 20,700 miles in a year—could imply either heavier usage or a period of consistent driving. The lack of failures or advisories during this period suggests the vehicle was maintained adequately during this time. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of high-wear components that are not directly tested during an MOT. Focus on the suspension, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, as these are common failure points on this model at this mileage. The brakes, though not flagged in the MOT, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been driven aggressively. Additionally, inspect the underbody for corrosion around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust system, as this is a critical area for structural integrity in a vehicle of this age. The dual-tone paint suggests potential blending issues, so check for inconsistent repairs or rust beneath the panels. Finally, verify the condition of the exhaust system for leaks or excessive corrosion, as this can lead to increased emissions and reduced efficiency.
