2012 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · SM62 ACX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes over the last three years. Following the most recent test in October 2025 at 136,606 miles, the car passed without any defects or advisories recorded. This follows a streak of clean passes dating back to 2023, indicating that the previous owners have maintained the essential safety and environmental components to meet DVSA standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,758 miles per year. Data shows a steady accumulation of roughly 8,000 miles between the October 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 7,670 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. This regularity suggests predictable use rather than long periods ofກັບ, which often leads to perished rubber components and seized brakes. The only anomaly is the brief failure in September 2022 at 108,210 miles, which was rectified quickly as the vehicle passed just one month later with only 300 miles added. Given the clean records in recent years, a buyer should focus on standard high-mileage wear associated with a Kuga of this age. At 136,000 miles, inspection of suspension arm bushes and coil springs is vital, as these components often degrade at this interval. While the MOT record does not flag structural corrosion or brake issues, a physical check of the sills and wheel arches is necessary to ensure no hidden rust is developing between the annual tests. The condition of the brake discs and tyre sidewalls will also confirm if the consistent mileage reflects well-cared-for mechanical.
