2008 Ford KA 1.3L Petrol · EX08 WNW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass record over the last four years. The most recent test conducted on 12 September 2023 at 61,401 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure one mile prior at 61,400 miles. This specific sequence suggests a minor administrative or sensor-related failure that was rectified immediately, as the subsequent re-test showed no remaining mechanical or structural advisories. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,411 miles per year. Between August 2020 and September 2023, the car covered only 7,589 miles, indicating a history of light use or extended periods of stationary. While this low mileage generally implies less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the infrequent use of a vehicle of this age can sometimes lead to specific issues such as surface corrosion on brake discs or the degradation of rubber seals and suspension bushes. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as this era of Ford Ka is prone to corrosion that may manifest regardless of mileage. Check the underbody for bubbling rust and inspect the suspension components for signs of cracking or perished due to age. Because the vehicle sits frequently, verify the tyre age rather than just the tread depth, as low-mileage cars often suffer from dry rot before the tread wears down.
