2016 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · MD16 EBO

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently clean MOT history over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 8 May 2025 at 90,517 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This lack of failures suggests that the previous owners proactively addressed mechanical wear and safety issues before they could result in an official testing failure. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per annum. Between the July 2021 test at 48,603 miles and the July 2024 test at 82,998 miles, the car covered 34,395 miles, maintaining a steady annual usage profile. The interval between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows a slight accumulation of 7,519 miles, which aligns with the historical average and does not suggest long periods of neglect or sudden mechanical strain. While the digital record shows no recurring structural or brake faults, a physical inspection should still focus on components subject to the 90,000-mile wear threshold. Given the age of the Kuga, the buyer should examine the suspension bushes and control arms for signs of cracking, as these often degrade at this mileage regardless of MOT failure. The brake discs should be checked for thinning or uneven wear, and the calipers should be inspected for corrosion to ensure smooth operation despite the clean test history.
