2008 Ford KA 1.3L Petrol · AK08 CSG

The 2008 Ford Ka presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 July 2025 at 21,011 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the entire history, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test regime. Annual mileage sits exceptionally low for an eighteen-year-old car. The record shows 10,251 miles in July 2021, rising to 12,128 by July 2022, 15,344 by July 2023, 18,019 by July 2024, and 21,011 by July 2025. That equates to roughly 2,760 miles added per year, well under the national average and confirming light use. The clean test sheets across these dates give no indication of deferred consumable replacement or escalating wear, though the sparse interval data limits deeper trend analysis. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the flawless record. Prolonged standing implied by low yearly use can allow suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers to seize or crack without triggering an MOT fault. Tyres and brake discs may show age-related perishing rather than mileage wear. Structural corrosion beneath sills and subframes warrants close examination, as the tester recorded no rust advisories yet DVSA checks on a car of this age often miss early moisture trapping. Verify fluid condition and handbrake travel before purchase.
