2012 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · LD62 LNO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes over the last three years. The most recent test on 5 December 2025 at 73,962 miles resulted in a pass following a minor initial failure for insufficient washer fluid delivery. This indicates a high level of mechanical upkeep, as the vehicle has avoided any recorded defects or structural advisories across four consecutive tests since November 2022. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 14-year-old Ford, averaging approximately 5,283 miles per year. Data shows steady, incremental progression, moving from 64,626 miles in November 2022 to 73,962 miles in late 2025. This low-intensity usage suggests that the drivetrain and engine components have faced less stress than average, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or fluid breakdown that an MOT test might not capture. While the record is clean of serious mechanical failures, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to age rather than wear. The buyer should inspect the suspension bushes for cracking and check coil springs for corrosion, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from perishability due to time. Additionally, verify the brake discs for surface pitting or seizing, which can occur if the vehicle sat stationary for extended periods between its annual tests.
