2015 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · DC65 FGK

The 2015 Ford Ka presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 April 2025 at 65,546 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 1 May 2024 at 60,575 miles confirms no outstanding advisories have carried through. The single failure on 29 April 2024 at 60,575 miles listed no defects, indicating a administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault, with the car passing two days later on 1 May 2024. Recorded mileage sits at 65,546 against an eleven-year lifespan, equating to roughly 5,959 miles per year and marking the car as low use for its age. The gap between the 20 February 2023 test at 51,488 miles and the 9 December 2021 test at 54,962 miles is anomalous: the later date shows higher mileage, implying either a late-entered earlier record or a prior unrecorded test. From December 2021 to April 2025 the odometer moved only 10,584 miles, consistent with light urban running or extended standing periods. The absence of any advisories across five tests suggests the previous keeper addressed consumables before each examination and kept corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust emissions within limits. Low annual mileage combined with standing time raises the risk of perished rubber components, flat-spotted tyres, and surface structural rust beneath sills and arches that a static MOT bay check may miss. A buyer should physically inspect the Ka for dampness in the cabin, degraded door seals, and binding calipers from disuse. Verify the subframe and floorpan for corrosion, confirm tyre sidewall condition given the long idle stretches, and road-test to detect any drivetrain hesitation. The documentary history shows no recurring mechanical trend, but in-person checks remain essential on a low-mileage eleven-year-old vehicle.
