Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the mileage
Prioritise a professional inspection of the rear sub-frame, as corrosion was flagged during the April 2026 tests. You should also request evidence that the coolant leak and emissions failures (CO and Lambda readings) from the April 2026 tests were fully rectified.
Check the service history for any evidence of underbody sealing or rust prevention treatments. Given the pattern of corrosion on both the exhaust (2024) and sub-frame (2026), ensuring the chassis is sound is the most critical part of the purchase process.
The 1.2L petrol engine is designed for efficiency, typically offering low fuel costs and falling into a lower insurance group. Annual road tax for this 2015 model is generally affordable, though maintenance costs may increase if the noted corrosion requires structural work.
Typical maintenance for this model includes regular tyre and suspension checks. Total annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing, are estimated between £900 and £1,200.
Closely examine the rear sub-frame for the corrosion mentioned in the 2026 MOT records to ensure it has not progressed. Inspect the front shock absorbers for oil misting, as this was an advisory in 2025 and is a known common failure point for this model according to aggregate data.
Finally, check the exhaust system for signs of the corrosion first noted in 2024 and verify that the battery is now securely fixed, following the failure recorded in April 2026.
This white 2015 Ford Ka has recorded 44,699 miles, which is below the model average. The MOT history for 2026 shows a period of instability with two failures in one week before a pass, highlighting issues with coolant leaks and emissions. Corrosion on the rear sub-frame and exhaust has also been documented in the records.
This model has an average MOT pass rate of 78%, with frequent failures related to suspension arms, tyres, and shock absorbers.
