2022 Ford Puma ST-Line X Mhev 1.0L Petrol · ML72 JWC

The 2022 Ford Puma ST-Line X MHEV currently holds a valid MOT, having passed on 26 September 2025 at 24,322 miles. The maintenance trend is broadly stable, though the record reveals a minor but notable stumble on the same day. The vehicle initially failed the test for a worn nearside front tyre and an offside headlamp aim fault, both rectified before a pass was issued hours later. This suggests the previous owner addressed the immediate failures but may have allowed the tyre to deteriorate close to the legal limit before presenting the car. No recurring mechanical or structural defects appear in the available history, which is a positive indicator for a vehicle of this age. The mileage pattern is unremarkable and consistent with light-to-moderate use. At 24,322 miles over roughly four years, the annual average sits around 6,080 miles, which is typical for a vehicle of this type. The MOT record only captures the most recent test in September 2025, so there is no detailed chain of prior mileage readings to analyse for gaps or sudden accumulation. The absence of earlier entries in the supplied data limits a full longitudinal assessment, but the current odometer reading aligns well with the vehicle's age and does not raise concerns about long periods of inactivity or excessive wear. The sole advisory from the most recent test was the nearside front tyre wearing close to the legal limit and on its edge. Edge wear specifically hints at potential alignment or suspension geometry issues, such as excessive toe or camber deviation, rather than simple under-inflation. A buyer should inspect the nearside front tyre carefully for uneven wear patterns and check the condition of the inner sidewall. It would be prudent to have the front suspension and steering components examined, including track rod ends, wishbone bushes, and the condition of the coil spring and damper, to rule out a persistent alignment fault that could accelerate tyre wear. Beyond the tyre advisory, the headlamp aim fault was a one-off pass item with no recurrence, so lighting is unlikely to be a lingering concern. Given the low mileage and recent pass, the braking system and exhaust emissions appear to be in acceptable order. A buyer should still verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, particularly at the front, and check for any signs of corrosion on the underside, especially around suspension mounting points and the exhaust system, as these are common early failure points on modern Fords. The vehicle presents as mechanically sound with no serious structural or drivetrain red flags in the record.
