2019 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · DP19 VSO

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a recent passing result on 12 January 2026 at 50,400 miles. While the most recent test flagged worn front brake discs and thinning pads, these represent standard consumable wear rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The history shows a pattern of resolving minor electrical issues, such as the nearside headlamp failure during the March 2025 test, which was rectified to achieve a clean pass later that same day. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical light-use vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year over its seven-year lifespan. The data shows steady progression from 36,267 miles in May 2023 to 50,400 miles in January 2026. This gradual increase suggests the car has been used for regular, predictable journeys rather than sitting idle for long periods, which helps mitigate certain types of component degradation. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front braking system. The MOT record shows recurring advisories for pitted or scored front brake discs in both May 2023 and January 2026. Given that the January 2026 test specifically noted thinning pads alongside these scored discs, the front braking components are likely due for a full replacement of both pads and discs to ensure optimal performance. Beyond the brakes, the clean passes in 2024 and mid-2025 indicate that the vehicle has not suffered from significant structural corrosion or suspension failures during this period. Checking the condition of the tyres and wiper blades would be a sensible final step, though these minor consumables do not appear to have caused any previous failures in the recorded history.
