AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2014 Ford Ka presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 24 June 2025 at 75,204 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle cleared with no defects logged at that test. Prior to this, the test on 23 June 2025 recorded a fail at 75,200 miles, yet the DVSA entry shows no defects cited, indicating an administrative or presentation failure rather than a mechanical fault. The pattern repeats from June 2024, where a fail on 13 June at 72,041 miles with no defects preceded a clean pass on 18 June at 72,049 miles. Mileage has accumulated at a modest rate for a twelve-year-old car. The record shows 69,432 miles at the May 2023 test, rising to 72,049 by June 2024 and 75,204 by June 2025. That equates to roughly 2,600 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests and 3,155 miles over the following year, well below the 6,267 annual average implied by the odometer. The sparse history with three passes and two defect-free fails across three years suggests light use and no documented consumable or structural issues. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low annual mileage, as prolonged standing invites corrosion and seized components that an MOT with no advisories may not capture. The repeated defect-free failures point to previous owners addressing paperwork or presentation promptly rather than neglecting mechanical care, but the absence of advisories offers no insight into tyre sidewall condition or exhaust emissions at the limits. Verify the V5C and confirm the reason for the 2024 and 2025 failures with the testing station before purchase.
