2017 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · FP67 WGG

A consistent record of roadworthiness over the last five years has recently been interrupted by tyre degradation, as evidenced by the pass on 10 November 2025 which flagged concerns across all four corners of the vehicle. Prior to this, the vehicle maintained a clean sheet with no defects or advisories recorded between 2021 and 2024. The recorded mileage of 29,819 miles is low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 3,313 miles per year. This usage pattern indicates a low-intensity operational life, which typically results in reduced wear on the drivetrain and internal engine components. However, low annual mileage often correlates with rubber components deteriorating due to age rather than friction, a trend reflected in the latest test results. The latest inspection highlights a comprehensive need for tyre replacement, with both rear tyres noted as cracking or perishing and both front tyres worn close to the legal limit. The specific mention of edge wear on the front tyres is a key indicator that the vehicle's wheel alignment may be compromised or that the front suspension components are beginning to show wear. On a test drive, the buyer should pay close attention to the steering feel and vehicle tracking. Any tendency for the car to pull to one side or a lack of centering in the steering wheel would substantiate the edge wear noted in the MOT record. Additionally, the buyer should inspect the tyre sidewalls for visible weather-checking or cracks to verify the extent of the perishing mentioned in the November 2025 report.
