2017 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · SY67 LFT

The vehicle presents a stable profile of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes. Following the most recent test in February 2026 at 93,571 miles, the car passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical condition currently meets minimum legal standards. This follows a three-year trend of perfect results without any advisories, suggesting that the previous owners have proactively addressed potential issues before they reached the annual inspection stage. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per annum. Between February 2024 and February 2026, the car covered 16,804 miles showing a steady usage pattern rather than long periods of inactivity or heavy strain. The only anomaly in the record occurred in February 2023 at 67,115 miles, where a failure occurred just three days before a successful pass. This suggests a minor component failure that was rectified immediately without indicating a pattern of mechanical neglect. Despite the clean advisory history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to wear as the vehicle nears the 100,000-mile mark. At this mileage, the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers should be checked for signs of perished rubber or weeping, as the MOT does not always capture. The brakes should also be inspected for uneven disc wear or caliper movement, as the record shows no history of binding issues. Given the age of the vehicle, checking the chassis for structural corrosion is a standard precaution, though the lack of recorded advisories in the last three years suggests the structural integrity remains sound.
