2009 Ford KA 1.2L Diesel · FJ59 XAH

The 2009 Ford Ka demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its most recent MOT on 2025-09-23 at 107,168 miles, which passed with no defects. The prior test on 2024-09-26 at 104,486 miles also passed, though a failed test on 2024-09-25 at the same mileage recorded no defects, suggesting a possible administrative error or minor unresolved issue. No recurring mechanical faults are evident in the history, and the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards over the past three years. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,304 miles annually. Tests conducted every 12 months between 2022 and 2025 show consistent intervals, with no significant gaps or rapid accumulation. The 104,486-mile mark in 2024-2025 appears to reflect normal wear, though the duplicate test entries for that date require clarification. No major consumables or structural components were flagged, indicating the previous owner prioritized basic maintenance. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as coil springs and bushes, which may degrade over 17 years, and inspect brake discs and calipers for uneven wear, as these are common issues in older vehicles. Corrosion in the underbody or chassis should also be checked, particularly in areas prone to moisture. While the MOT records show no critical failures, the age of the vehicle warrants a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the absence of hidden structural or mechanical risks.
