The 2022 Ford Puma ST is exceptionally reliable for its age, with a 95.2% first-time pass rate that sits 15 percentage points above the UK average—dangerously defective faults are rare at just 2.8%. This is a car that arrives at its MOT test in genuinely good condition.

At an average of 22,000 miles for a two-year-old model, these cars have been driven normally and aren't showing the wear patterns of neglect; the 0.07 average failures per vehicle and 0.7 advisories tell you that when something does need attention, it's usually minor. Check the service history carefully and have any advisory items—likely minor trim or sensor issues—inspected before purchase, but mechanically this is a strong used buy.

What to check before buying a 2022 Ford Puma ST

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
