2021 Ford Kuga ST-Line Edition 1.5L Petrol · YP21 SVF

The 2021 Ford Kuga ST-Line Edition presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT test on 20 March 2026 at 46,575 miles recording zero defects. Three consecutive annual tests have all passed cleanly, indicating consistent upkeep and no recurring mechanical or structural concerns. This is a strong record for a vehicle of its age, suggesting attentive ownership and no outstanding advisories. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent and typical for a five-year-old vehicle. Between the March 2024 test at 31,402 miles and the March 2025 test at 39,366 miles, the car covered 7,964 miles in twelve months. The following year, from March 2025 to March 2026, it added 7,209 miles, showing a slight reduction in annual use but remaining well within the roughly 9,300-mile-per-year average. There are no unusual gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer readings that would suggest long periods of inactivity or excessive high-mileage bursts. With no defects flagged across three consecutive MOTs, there are no recurring faults to raise concern. A buyer should still carry out a thorough in-person inspection focused on areas the MOT does not fully assess. Check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for wear, particularly given the ST-Line's firmer setup. Inspect the brake discs and pads for uneven wear, and examine the exhaust system for corrosion. Inspect the inner wings, sills, and subframes for any signs of structural rust, as the Kuga's underbody components can deteriorate depending on climate and road conditions. Verify tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, and test the operation of all electronic systems including the infotainment, parking sensors, and climate control. A short road test will confirm gearbox smoothness, clutch engagement, and any unusual drivetrain vibrations.
