2015 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · BL64 FPV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing MOT tests. The most recent inspection conducted in March 2023 at 61,740 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating the car met all minimum standards at that time. Following a brief failure in April 2022, the subsequent re-test showed no faults, suggesting that the previous owner addressed any immediate issues promptly to maintain legal compliance. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per year. Between March 2020 at 40,954 miles and March 2023 at 61,740 miles, the car covered roughly 20,000 miles over three years. While low annual mileage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, long intervals between use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or corrosion of brake surfaces. The gap between the last test in 2023 and the current date in 2026 means the vehicle is currently overdue for its MOT, requiring immediate validation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related wear rather than high-mileage fatigue. Given the low usage, check the suspension bushes for cracking and the tyres for age, as rubber perish over time regardless of distance driven. Examine the brake discs for surface pitting or seized calipers, which frequently occur on vehicles that sit for extended periods. Additionally, inspect the chassis and sills for structural corrosion, as surface rust remains a common concern for this model regardless of mileage figures.
