2019 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · WP69 UBU

The vehicle presents a clean mechanical record with a stable maintenance trend, though the most recent certificate expired on 21 October 2025. With no defects or advisories recorded during the October 2025 test at 44,685 miles, the car has consistently met DVSA standards without requiring remedial work. The absence of corrosion, suspension wear, or braking system issues across recent inspections suggests the previous owner addressed wear items promptly or the vehicle has experienced light usage. Mileage accumulation shows a distinct shift in usage patterns. Between the December 2022 and October 2023 tests, the odometer increased by nearly 11,700 miles, indicating heavy motorway or commuter use during that period. Conversely, the vehicle covered only approximately 1,500 miles annually between October 2023 and October 2025. This recent drop to minimal usage suggests the car has likely been used for short, local journeys or sat idle for extended periods, which can cause issues with battery health and fluid degradation despite the low total mileage. Buyers should verify the condition of perishable components that often deteriorate during periods of inactivity. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for flat-spotting or age-related cracking, as the low annual mileage in recent years may not justify replacement despite the tyres being several years old. A thorough check of the braking system is advisable to ensure callipers are free from corrosion or binding, particularly given the recent lack of use. Finally, verify the service history aligns with the mileage jump in 2023 to ensure essential fluid changes were performed during that period of high intensity driving.
