Mechanical Assessment

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

The 2013 Ford Ka presents as roadworthy following a pass on 8 December 2025 at 70,799 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable and shows no escalating mechanical concerns across the supplied history. The most recent test cleared the car cleanly, indicating the vehicle met all statutory requirements at that point. Recorded mileage sits at 70,799 against a 13-year lifespan, equating to roughly 5,446 miles per year, which is low for the age. The driver covered 5,412 miles between the August 2023 pass at 60,577 and the August 2024 pass at 65,989, then a further 4,810 miles to the December 2025 pass. Two failed tests on 21 August 2023 and 5 December 2025 both recorded no defects, with passes issued one day later on each occasion at near-identical mileages; this pattern suggests administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical fault. The sparse, clean record gives little evidence of deferred consumable care. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and the likelihood of prolonged standing between low annual use. No advisories for corrosion or exhaust emissions appear in the record, so structural integrity and emissions control show no flagged degradation. The repeated no-defect failures warrant a check of the VOSA failure reason codes, but the subsequent same-week passes imply no outstanding roadworthiness risk. Given the clean trailing twelve months and low yearly mileage, the Ka reads as a lightly used city car with no recorded wear trends. Verify tyre sidewall condition and wiper operation in person, as these consumables fall outside MOT defect capture until worn beyond limits.
