2021 Ford Puma ST 1.5L Petrol · SC21 MXV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on June 8 2026 at 25,692 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but indicates a consistent pattern of neglecting minor consumable items rather than major mechanical or structural failures. While the latest test flagged a minor advisory on the nearside rear tyre due to perishing, the lack of mechanical failures over the last three years suggests the core components remain within operational parameters. The mileage profile is low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,100 miles per annum. The data shows consistent usage, moving from 14,054 miles in June 2024 to 19,807 miles in June 2025, and finally to 25,692 miles in June 2026. This low mileage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can sometimes lead to rubber-based parts drying out if the car sits stationary for long periods between journeys. A buyer should specifically inspect the tyres and wheels, as the record shows a recurring issue with uneven wear and age. The 2024 test noted an offside front tyre worn to the legal limit, the 2025 test flagged a nearside front tyre reaching the limit, and the 2026 advisory mentions cracking on the nearside rear tyre. This sequence suggests potential alignment issues or a failure to replace tyres before they reach the end of their structural life. Attention should also be paid to the braking system. The June 2024 test identified pitted and scored rear brake discs. While the pads had sufficient life at that time, the presence of surface corrosion on discs is common in low-mileage vehicles. Given the underbody covers noted in 2024, a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension mounting is necessary to ensure no hidden corrosion or damage has developed away from the tester's line of sight.
