The 2021 Ford Puma ST-Line MHEV is a strong performer on the MOT test, with a 94.6% first-time pass rate that sits well clear of the UK average of 80%—and dangerous defects are rare, affecting only 3.2% of vehicles ever tested. Petrol models pass at 94.5%, consistent with the cohort average, so there's no reliability split to worry about between fuel types.
At just under 25,000 miles median, these cars are still relatively young and lightly used, which explains why failures average only 0.15 per vehicle—owners are encountering very few serious problems. The 1.1 average advisories per test suggest minor wear-and-tear items are the main pattern, not structural concerns; if you're buying one, check the service history and grab a pre-purchase inspection to catch any advisories before they become failures.
The 2021 Ford Puma ST Line MHEV passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (95.4% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
These stats describe 7,282 vehicles as a group. The specific vehicle you're looking at could be the one good example or the one outlier. Run its registration to find out.
