2017 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · LR17 MMX

This 2017 Ford Kuga has maintained a consistently clean MOT history, passing all four most recent tests without any recorded defects or advisories. The most recent inspection, conducted on 16 August 2025 at 101,377 miles, confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards, with no evidence of recurring mechanical failures or unresolved issues. The absence of advisories across all tests suggests previous owners adhered to basic maintenance intervals, though this does not preclude hidden wear in non-MOT-tested components like suspension bushes or drivetrain seals. The mileage progression indicates typical usage for its age, averaging around 11,264 miles annually without abrupt spikes or prolonged stagnation. The most recent test at 101,377 miles was conducted just over a year ago, which is standard for a vehicle of this age—no gaps in MOT history suggest consistent registration. However, the steady accumulation of mileage implies higher wear on consumables such as brake pads, tyres, and suspension components, all of which will require closer scrutiny. Given the lack of MOT-reported faults, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension integrity, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, as these are common failure points at this mileage. Binding calipers or uneven brake pad wear could also emerge, despite no prior advisories, so brake system condition warrants thorough checking. Structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should be assessed visually, as this is often overlooked in MOT tests. Finally, the exhaust system—though not flagged—should be examined for leaks or excessive rust, as emissions compliance was never a failing point but could indicate underlying issues.
