2009 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · AD09 MZE

The 2009 Ford Ka presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean pass recorded at 86,497 miles on 22 September 2025. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration across the five-year MOT span, with every annual test from 29 September 2022 through to the latest examination returning a pass and no defects logged. A failed entry on 22 September 2025 at identical mileage carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault on the day. Mileage accumulation sits well below typical averages for a seventeen-year-old vehicle. The odometer read 80,676 miles in September 2022, rose to 83,369 by September 2023, then 85,108 in September 2024, and 86,497 in September 2025. That equates to roughly 1,800 miles per year over the recorded period, against a lifetime average near 5,088 miles per year. The sparse, defect-free history offers little evidence of neglect, though long stationary periods implied by low use can conceal perished rubber components and seized mechanisms not visible in a pass result. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers given the vehicle's age and likely intermittent use. Standing time promotes corrosion on structural members and brake discs, neither of which a clean MOT necessarily excludes if within tolerance at test. Examine exhaust emissions hardware and underbody integrity for rust, and verify tyre sidewall condition where low mileage may mask cracking rather than tread wear. The duplicate 22 September 2025 entries at matching mileage warrant a check of the DVSA certificate to confirm the pass is the live result. Otherwise the record implies a lightly used, conscientiously tested car with no advisory pattern suggesting emerging mechanical risk.
