2024 Ford Puma ST-Line X Mhev 1.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · YR74 FSX

There is no MOT record available for the 2024 Ford Puma ST‑Line X MHEV, so a definitive test outcome cannot be quoted and no maintenance trend—stable, worsening or improving—can be inferred from the official DVSA database. The absence of any recorded inspection means the buyer must treat the vehicle as having an unknown road‑worthiness status until a current MOT is obtained. Mileage for this vehicle has not been disclosed, which makes it impossible to benchmark usage against its two‑year age. A typical annual accumulation for a family hatchback of this class would be in the region of 8,000 to 12,000 miles; any figure substantially below that would suggest limited use and potential age‑related deterioration, while a high mileage figure would indicate accelerated wear on the power‑train, suspension and braking components. Without a mileage figure the buyer should request a verified odometer reading and, if possible, service book entries that can corroborate the true distance covered. Given the lack of MOT data and unknown mileage, the prospective purchaser should conduct a thorough visual and tactile inspection focused on age‑related degradation. Examine the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry rot or bulging and confirm that tread depth meets the legal minimum; tyres older than four years can deteriorate even if tread remains acceptable. Inspect the 12 V battery terminals for corrosion and have the battery load‑tested, while also arranging a dealer‑level check of the high‑voltage hybrid battery to confirm capacity and that any warranty service intervals have been observed. Verify that engine oil, coolant and brake fluid appear clean and have been changed in accordance with the manufacturer’s schedule, as fluids degrade over time regardless of mileage. Check the suspension bushes, coil springs and steering rack for any looseness, clunking or uneven wear when the vehicle is rocked over bumps, and listen for any brake shudder or judder that could indicate rusted discs or worn pads. Finally, request the full service history and any records of recall work for the 2024 model year, particularly those relating to the mild‑hybrid system and electronic controls. A pre‑purchase inspection by a qualified MOT centre should include a comprehensive diagnostic scan to verify that all electronic warning lights are extinguished, that the hybrid battery management system reports no faults, and that the vehicle passes the mandatory 12‑month MOT that would have been due since registration. Only after these checks can the buyer be confident of the Puma’s mechanical soundness and road‑worthiness.
