2019 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · GV19 XRW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent MOT on 15 January 2026 at 36,469 miles. This result follows a period of consistent performance where the car met all minimum safety standards without defects. The history shows a reliable pattern of compliance, with only one minor electrical fault noted in the last four years of the testing record. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,200 miles per year. Between the April 2022 test at 16,510 miles and the January 2025 test at 28,026 miles, the car covered roughly 3,800 miles annually, indicating light annual use. The more recent interval of 8,443 miles between January 2025 and January 2026 shows a slight increase in usage. Low mileage generally reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it can occasionally lead to issues with components sitting stationary. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to neglect, as low-mileage cars often suffer from seized brake calipers or perished rubber suspension bushes. The 2025 failure regarding a non-obligatory stop lamp was a minor consumable issue and suggests the previous owner paid attention to basic electrical checks. Since no structural corrosion or mechanical failures were flagged in the history, the priority should be checking the underside and wheel arches for rust to ensure the low mileage has not masked environmental-related degradation.
