2018 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · MF18 AAJ

The 2025‑12‑17 MOT at 39,798 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record is stable. All previous tests from 2023 to 2024 also showed no recorded defects, indicating consistent upkeep and no worsening mechanical condition. The mileage trajectory shows a low annual average of roughly 4,975 miles, yet the jump from 29,698 miles in March 2023 to 37,046 miles by December 2023 represents an increase of 7,348 miles in nine months, suggesting a period of more intensive use. Subsequent annual increments of 882 miles in 2024 and 1,870 miles in 2025 indicate a gradual rise rather than rapid accumulation. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, test the brake calipers for binding and inspect the brake discs for corrosion, as these components often show signs of neglect during the earlier mileage surge. The chassis and wheel‑arch areas should be checked for structural rust, and the exhaust system should be assessed for cracks or excessive corrosion, because low mileage alone does not guarantee the absence of hidden deterioration. In summary, the vehicle’s recent MOT confirms roadworthiness, but the earlier mileage increase and limited test history mean a thorough in‑person inspection of suspension, braking, structural integrity and exhaust condition is essential for a confident purchase decision.
