2021 Ford Kuga ST-Line First ED Phev CVT 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · MR53 WDS

The 2021 Ford Kuga ST-Line PHEV presents a stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 21 November 2025 at 53,159 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken clean MOT sequence across all three available entries. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration and no advisories have ever been raised against the vehicle. Annual mileage sits at roughly 10,600 miles, which is typical for a five-year-old family SUV. The records show 38,578 miles at the 14 June 2024 test, rising to 41,036 miles by 6 December 2024, then 53,159 miles by November 2025. The jump of over 12,000 miles in the final eleven months is marginally above the yearly average but not abnormal. The three-entry history is sparse yet entirely clean, with no gaps, failures, or consumable wear flags such as tyres or wipers noted at any stage. Given the absence of recorded faults, the previous owner appears to have maintained the car to a standard that satisfied DVSA testers without escalation. No recurring suspension bushes, coil spring, brake disc, or corrosion issues appear in the data, so no worsening mechanical pattern exists. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity, hybrid drivetrain cooling, and brake caliper operation, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not capture incipient wear. Verify the 12-volt battery health and inspect underbody shielding for impact damage, since PHEV components sit low and outside routine test scope.
