2013 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · DY63 AAX

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 9 May 2025 at 40,937 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent trend of clean passes dating back to June 2022, suggesting the car has been maintained to a standard that avoids common failure points. The mileage data contains a significant irregularity that requires scrutiny. The vehicle recorded 28,063 miles in June 2022 and 33,881 miles in May 2024. However, the June 2023 test shows a reading of 50,570 miles, which is nearly 10,000 miles higher than the subsequent 2024 entry. This discrepancy suggests either a clerical error by the tester in 2023 or a potential issue with the odometer. Excluding that outlier, the overall usage remains low for a 13 year old car. Low mileage vehicles often suffer from deterioration due to inactivity rather than wear. A buyer should specifically check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which can crack when a car sits idle. The absence of any recorded corrosion or brake binding in the MOT history is positive, but a physical inspection of the underbody for structural rust is still necessary given the vehicle's age. Verify the odometer's authenticity to resolve the mileage conflict seen between the 2023 and 2024 tests. Check the condition of the brake discs for surface pitting and ensure the engine oil and coolant show no signs of contamination. While the DVSA record is clean, these manual checks will confirm if the low usage has led to any dormant mechanical degradation.
