2017 Ford Kuga 1.5L Diesel · MV67 GGJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by its most recent MOT pass in April 2026 at 76,640 miles. The last three annual tests have passed with no defects recorded, suggesting that the mechanical condition currently meets minimum regulatory standards. While a failure occurred in April 2024, the immediate rectification and subsequent clean passes indicate that the owner addresses identified faults promptly rather than allowing them to persist. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,500 miles annually. Between April 2023 at 46,025 miles and April 2025 at 66,043 miles, the car covered 20,018 miles, showing a steady usage pattern. This regularity reduces the risks associated with long periods of standing, such as seized seals or brake corrosion, while the 10,000-mile intervals between recent tests reflect a predictable driving schedule. Given the clean nature of the recent records, a physical inspection should focus on components subject to wear at the 76,000-mile mark. Specifically check the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber or stress fractures, as these are common on Kugas of this era. You should also examine the brake discs for uneven wear and check the tyre manufacture dates for cracking, as the MOT does not assess the remaining life of these consumable items.
