2018 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · GD67 KNZ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on January 23 2026 at 30,183 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears improving following a period of reactive maintenance in early 2024. While the car previously showed signs of neglect, the clean sheet from the latest test indicates that the owner has addressed previously flagged mechanical and consumable issues. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,773 miles per year. This low usage is consistent across the record, with the car covering only 4,251 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. Such low mileage suggests the vehicle was used sparingly for short trips, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine. However, low-mileage patterns sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion from sitting, though the record does not show any structural failure related to this. A buyer should specifically inspect the nearside rear shock absorber, which was flagged for light oil misting in January 2025 at 25,932 miles. Although it passed the subsequent test, misting often precedes a total seal failure that would require replacement. The 2024 test also highlighted thin front brake linings, worn discs, and uneven tyre wear on the front axle. You should verify that the front brakes have been replaced and that the current tyres do not exhibit the same edge wear or suspension alignment issues.
