2014 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · TD02 DAN

The 2014 Ford Kuga presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 13 October 2025 at 99,293 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the previous four years. Annual mileage has tracked close to typical use for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The records show 76,388 miles in October 2021, rising to 83,774 by October 2022, 89,516 in October 2023, 95,538 in October 2024, and 99,293 in October 2025. That equates to roughly 6,000 to 6,800 miles added each year, with no gaps or sudden accumulation spikes. The DVSA history is sparse in advisories, showing five consecutive passes and no flagged wear items. A clean MOT sheet does not exempt the buyer from physical inspection. At near-100,000 miles the Kuga's suspension bushes, coil springs, and front subframe should be checked for age-related cracking or corrosion that a visual test may miss. Brake discs and calipers warrant measurement for wear and any signs of binding after standing periods. Given the lack of recorded faults, previous ownership appears to have kept basic upkeep current. The buyer should still commission an independent mechanical inspection before purchase to confirm structural integrity and emissions components remain within tolerance.
