2022 Ford Kuga ST-Line Phev CVT 2.5L Hybrid electric · RE72 GPZ

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection. In the November 2025 MOT test conducted at 18,036 miles, the Kuga passed without any defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the mechanical and safety systems met all DVSA standards without the indication of recurring faults or developing structural neglect. The recorded mileage of 18,036 miles over a four-year period reflects a low annual average of approximately 4,500 miles per year. This low usage pattern typically suggests reduced wear on high-stress components such as the engine, suspension, and drivetrain. However, such low mileage on a hybrid vehicle can occasionally lead to flat-spotting on tyres or corrosion of brake components and rubber bushings if the car has sat stationary for extended periods between journeys. Since the MOT history is sparse and shows no previously flagged faults, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to low-mileage operation. A buyer should check the tyres for cracking or uneven wear and inspect the brake discs for surface rust from lack of use. Given the age of the vehicle, verifying the suspension bushes for premature cracking is essential, as these parts degrade over time regardless of the distance driven. The hybrid battery health should also be verified via diagnostics to ensure the low-usage pattern has not resulted in cell degradation.
