Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Ford Kuga Titanium Edition Ecoblue?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

This 2022 Kuga Titanium EcoBlue is a strong performer at MOT, passing on first attempt 92.1% of the time—well above the UK average of 80%—with only 3.1% ever flagged for dangerous defects, making it a safe bet for buyers. The diesel engine proves dependable so far, averaging just 0.12 failures per vehicle and 0.9 advisories, suggesting solid build quality in this cohort.

That said, check the service history carefully and have a pre-purchase inspection focus on the EcoBlue's fuel system and injectors, as diesel engines reward consistent maintenance.
