2014 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · LF14 NKA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear improving maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 58,417 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed. This follows a period of clean MOT results since 2021, suggesting the current ownership is maintaining the vehicle to a high mechanical standard. The mileage pattern is consistently low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between April 2019 and October 2020, where the car covered only 11,609 miles in seventeen months. Since 2021, the usage has remained steady at roughly 5,000 to 6,000 miles annually. This low annual mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it often leads to accelerated degradation of rubber-based seals due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the exhaust system and suspension components, as the 2020 test at 33,329 miles flagged a corroded exhaust and low tyre. While these appear resolved, the age of the vehicle necessitates a close check for structural corrosion on the sills and rear suspension mounting points. Additionally, the intermittent engine management light recorded in 2017 at 8,322 miles should be verified via a diagnostic scan to ensure no lingering sensor faults remain, despite the recent history of clean passes.
