2019 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · YA69 VBO

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy as evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on January 22 2026 at 23,110 miles. While the overall maintenance trend appears stable over the five years, the latest report indicates a minor decline in consumable upkeep. The tester flagged the front tyres as worn close to the legal limit and uneven on both edges, suggesting a potential alignment issue or deferred tyre replacement that was not present in previous inspections. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,300 miles per annum. Between January 2022 and January 2024, the car covered only 7,023 miles, maintaining a clean record with no recorded defects. The interval of 4,458 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows a slight increase in usage but remains well below average. This low-mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the engine and suspension components, though it can occasionally lead to the degradation of rubber seals and brake corrosion due to extended inactivity. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension geometry to account for the uneven tyre wear noted in the 2026 test. Misalignment or worn suspension bushes may require adjustment or replacement to prevent further premature tyre damage. Given the low mileage, it is also advisable to check the brake discs for surface pitting or seizing, which frequently occurs on vehicles that sit for long periods. Otherwise, the history suggests a vehicle that has been well-kept without significant structural or mechanical failures reported to the DVSA.
