2010 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · PL10 ABZ

The 2010 Ford Kuga shows a stable roadworthiness profile, with the latest examination on 20 May 2025 at 92,639 miles recording a pass and no defects. Earlier tests returned clean results. The maintenance trend is neither worsening nor resolving because no faults emerged. On 28 May 2024 at 85,452 miles the DVSA dataset captures both a pass and a fail on the same day with no defects listed; this duplicate entry indicates an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical defect flagged by the tester. Odometer readings confirm low usage for a sixteen-year-old vehicle. The 20 May 2022 test logged 64,809 miles. By 7 June 2023 the figure reached 78,664 miles, then 85,452 miles on 28 May 2024, and 92,639 miles on 20 May 2025. Annual increments average near 5,790 miles, far below typical fleet averages. No abrupt jumps or missing years appear. Such sparse yet unblemished records suggest the former owner exercised light stewardship, possibly leaving the car stationary for long intervals, and kept statutory tests punctual. Despite the clean MOT trail, a physical appraisal remains prudent for a car of this age. The tester never cited suspension bushes, coil springs, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions, but sixteen years invite invisible degradation. Inspect subframe and sill structures for corrosion, measure brake disc wear, and check steering rack gaiters for splits. Confirm the peculiar May 2024 dual outcome directly with DVSA to rule out omitted failure reasons. Low mileage does not exempt aged rubber or metal from fatigue.
