2018 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · PF18 AEE

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 4 June 2025 at 87,539 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates dating back to May 2023, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight year old vehicle. The odometer rose from 63,084 miles in May 2023 to 74,913 miles by June 2024, and reached 87,539 miles by June 2025. This represents a steady increase of approximately 12,000 to 13,000 miles per year over the last two years. There are no erratic gaps or sudden spikes in usage that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or excessive commercial use. The absence of advisories across the last three years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, as these components typically show wear around the 80,000 mile mark. Checking for brake disc corrosion or thinning pads is also advisable, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail the remaining thickness of consumables. Attention should be paid to the underside for any signs of surface corrosion, particularly on the subframes and sills. Because the MOT history shows no failures or warnings, it is difficult to identify specific weak points. A manual check of the tyre tread depths and a visual inspection of the exhaust system for leaks will confirm if the previous owner maintained the car beyond the basic requirements of the annual test.
