2011 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · SY54 ALL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 19 December 2025 at 122,450 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently achieved clean passes over the last two years. While the record shows a momentary failure in December 2025, the immediate pass on the same day suggests the owner addressed any necessary rectifications promptly rather than allowing faults to escalate into mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,100 miles per year. Between December 2023 and December 2024, the car covered 7,650 miles, while the interval between December 2024 and December 2025 saw a further 7,524 miles. This steady annual accumulation indicates regular road use, which is often beneficial for seals, bushings, and drivetrain components to prevent the corrosion and seizing typically seen in low-mileage, rarely-driven vehicles. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the suspension and braking system, as these are common areas of wear for a Kuga of this age. Although the recent history is clean, the high mileage of 122,450 miles puts significant stress on control arm bushes, shock absorbers, and coil springs. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the underside for structural corrosion on the mounting points is essential, as the MOT only identifies rust defects once they reach a specific threshold of decay.
