2018 Ford Kuga 1.5L Petrol · RV67 ABO

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test conducted on December 1, 2023 at 38,675 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and structural components were within acceptable operating parameters. The maintenance trend remains exceptionally stable, showing no evidence of recurring faults or escalating degradation over the last four years of recorded testing. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. Between November 2020 and December 2023, the car covered 17,886 miles, suggesting a pattern of light use or short-distance commuting. This low usage typically results in reduced wear on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and brake components compared to high-mileage counterparts. However, the low annual mileage can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber components or corrosion if the vehicle has sat for extended periods between tests. Given the lack of recorded faults in the MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage storage. A buyer should check for sidewall cracking on tyres and potential corrosion on brake discs, which can surface quickly when brakes are not frequently used. It is also prudent to inspect the undercarriage for fluid leaks or early structural rust, as the MOT does not detect every minor seeping. The overall data suggests a well-maintained vehicle that has not been subjected to the mechanical stress associated with high-mileage operation.
