2019 Ford Kuga 2.0L Diesel · YV68 OBO

As a 1997cc diesel, this Kuga is designed for efficient long-distance cruising, though fuel costs will depend on your driving style. Tax and insurance groups vary, but diesel SUVs of this era typically sit in mid-range insurance brackets.

Maintenance costs should be predictable, though you should budget for common wear-and-tear items like tyres and brake components. Given the model's aggregate data, keep an eye on CV boot replacements and headlamp maintenance to avoid unexpected repair bills.

Focus your physical inspection on the tyres and lighting systems. The model aggregate data identifies tyres, headlamps, and CV boots as the top failure reasons for this vehicle type, so check for tread depth and any cracks in the rubber boots near the driveshafts.

Additionally, check the condition of the headlamp lenses for any UV damage or condensation, as this is a frequent reason for MOT failures in the Kuga model range. Since the MOT history shows no defects, a thorough check of these specific areas is the best way to prepare for your own inspection.
