2013 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · CU63 FGD

The 2013 Ford Ka presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 December 2025 at 68,612 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass on 15 November 2024 at 66,670 miles confirms no ongoing mechanical or structural concerns across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 68,612 against an approximate 13-year age, equating to roughly 5,278 miles per year and indicating light use. The DVSA entries show smooth, low annual accumulation: 60,612 miles on 25 November 2022, 65,375 on 7 November 2023, 66,670 on 15 November 2024, and 68,612 on 1 December 2025. A failed test on 7 November 2024 at 66,659 miles listed no defects, with a clean pass eight days later at 66,670 miles, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault-driven failure. The sparse, defect-free record gives no recurring advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emissions to track. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody for hidden rust, given the vehicle's age and the possibility that long standing periods have affected rubber components and brake condition unseen by the MOT lane. Pre-purchase checks ought to confirm tyre sidewall condition, wiper blade wear, and fluid levels, as these consumables fall outside MOT defect capture when within limits. The low mileage implies gentle previous ownership, but a 13-year-old hatchback warrants a scrutinising look at steering joints and subframe mounts before commitment.
