2012 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · CV12 ULS

The 2012 Ford Ka presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no recorded defects across its two most recent MOT tests. The January 2023 examination at 76,152 miles returned a clean pass with no advisories, matching the prior January 2022 pass at 69,989 miles. The vehicle shows no worsening or recurring fault pattern in the official record. Recorded mileage sits at 76,152 against an approximate 14-year lifespan, equating to roughly 5,439 miles per year. The Ka covered only 6,163 miles between the January 2022 and January 2023 tests. Such low annual use for its age suggests either light commuting or extended standing periods, though the sparse two-entry history limits deeper trend analysis. No rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps appear in the supplied data. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion given the car's age and likely intermittent use. Standing vehicles often develop perished rubber components and surface rust on structural members that a pass with no advisories will not capture. Brake discs, calipers, and handbrake mechanism warrant physical checks for binding or seizure from disuse. Verify tyre sidewall condition and date codes, as low-mileage cars frequently retain aged rubber beyond safe service life despite adequate tread at test.
