AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by its most recent MOT on 2026-03-31 at 34,268 miles, which recorded no defects. The prior test in 2025-01-20 at 19,668 miles also showed no issues, indicating consistent compliance with safety standards. No recurring faults or escalating concerns are evident in the two-pass record, suggesting the previous owner maintained the car to acceptable levels. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 2022 model, averaging 8,567 miles annually. The 14-month gap between the 2025-01-20 and 2026-03-31 tests saw 14,600 miles added, reflecting moderate driving rather than rapid wear. No anomalies in mileage accumulation or extended inactivity are apparent, though the limited data span of 15 months offers a narrow snapshot of the car’s history. No structural, suspension, or braking defects were flagged in the MOT records, but a buyer should still verify the condition of components not tested during MOTs, such as exhaust system corrosion, interior panel integrity, and transmission fluid levels. The absence of advisories on tyres, brakes, or suspension suggests these areas were well-maintained, though physical inspection is recommended to confirm. Overall, the car’s MOT history supports a cautious purchase, provided a full pre-purchase check addresses non-MOT-related elements.

Our Verdict

This is a strong used buy for a 2022 diesel SUV with a clean MOT record and sensible mileage. Unless the price is well above market, we would recommend proceeding with a standard used-car check and purchase.

Given the clean MOT history with no advisories or failures, your main negotiation leverage will be on price and specification rather than outstanding defects. Confirm the vehicle's service history is complete for a 2022 diesel, as Ford's 1.5 EcoBlue benefits from timely oil and filter changes to protect the emissions system. Check that the automatic gearbox shifts smoothly and that the infotainment and driver aids on the Titanium Edition are fully functional, as these are common areas buyers overlook on nearly new cars.

As a 1.5-litre Euro 6 AP diesel, the Kuga should return strong fuel economy, typically in the high 40s to mid-50s mpg in real-world mixed driving, keeping fuel costs reasonable for a compact SUV. Road tax for a 2022 diesel will depend on CO2 but is generally modest for this engine size, and insurance should sit in a mainstream group for the model. Annual maintenance is likely limited to routine servicing, though diesel-specific items such as the AdBlue system and DPF should be factored into upkeep.

The MOT history shows no failures or advisories on either test, so there are no specific defect patterns from the record to investigate. Nonetheless, inspect the bodywork on this silver example for stone chips and parking marks, and verify the condition of tyres and brakes given the 14,600 miles covered between the two MOTs. As no aggregate model data is available, rely on a professional inspection and the clean MOT record, paying attention to the diesel emissions components which are not flagged in the history but are worth confirming during a test drive.

The Ford Kuga Titanium Edition EcoBlue Automatic (MV22ACZ) is a March 2022-registered silver 1.5-litre diesel that has covered 34,268 miles as of its most recent MOT in March 2026. Both MOT tests on record, in January 2025 at 19,668 miles and March 2026 at 34,268 miles, passed with no defects recorded. With no failures and below-average annual mileage for its age, the vehicle presents as a well-maintained modern family SUV.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Ford Kuga Titanium Edition EcoBlue Automatic, so reliability claims cannot be made from model statistics.
