2011 Ford KA 1.2L Diesel · FJ11 RXK

The 2011 Ford Ka presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 1 April 2026 at 92,604 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, with the vehicle passing cleanly once the two recent failure entries were resolved. Those failures on 27 March 2026 and 28 March 2025, both at identical mileages to the subsequent passes three to five days later, show no defects recorded on either occasion. This pattern indicates administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults requiring rectification. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a fifteen-year-old vehicle. The record shows 81,767 miles at the March 2024 test, rising to 87,423 miles by March 2025 and 92,604 miles by April 2026. That equates to roughly 5,600 to 5,800 miles per year across the documented period, consistent with light-to-moderate use. No rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps appear between the three years of data, and the sparse advisory history suggests the previous owner kept the car to a basic pass standard without neglecting major components. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and the absence of any recorded advisories across the history. The clean MOT sheets do not confirm the condition of consumable items below failure threshold. Structural corrosion around sills and subframes warrants physical checks, as the tester logged no corrosion findings but the vehicle is now exposed to its sixteenth year of road salt and moisture. The repeated fail-then-pass entries within days point to a seller or keeper addressing a non-mechanical compliance matter rather than deferred maintenance. Verify the V5C and test certificate numbers against the DVSA database before purchase, and confirm the odometer reading matches the 92,604 miles logged in April 2026.
