2011 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · HG11 ABO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a consistent maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 November 2025 at 86,311 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite a failure occurring just eight days prior at 86,305 miles. This pattern suggests the previous owner was proactive in rectifying immediate issues to ensure compliance. The lack of recurring advisories across the last three tests indicates that the mechanical and structural components currently meet the minimum operating standards. The mileage profile is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,754 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, with the car travelling from 78,336 miles in December 2023 to 83,633 miles by November 2024, and then to 86,311 miles by late November 2025. While low annual mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components, such as suspension bushes, brake lines, and brake seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, particularly looking for corrosion in the sills and wheel arches common to vehicles of this age. Given the low mileage, it is worth checking the brake system for seized calipers or pitted discs which can occur from infrequent use. While the MOT history is clean of major mechanical failures, the recent failures in 2024 and 2025 suggest that minor items like bulbs, wipers, or fluid leaks may require attention before the next annual test.
