2011 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · PS04 PLN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on April 27 2026 at 37,589 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows improvement following a period of instability in early 2024. While the car previously failed a test due to multiple suspension and tyrerelated issues, the subsequent two clean tests indicate that the current owner has addressed the flagged mechanical faults and maintained basic roadworthiness standards. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,500 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between October 2022 and May 2024, where the car covered only 3,204 miles over nearly eighteen months. This low usage often suggests less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and braking system, but it frequently leads to accelerated degradation of rubber components and corrosion due to sitting, which is consistent with the perished ball joint boots and corroded coil springs noted in the history. A physical inspection should focus on the front suspension assembly, as the ball joint dust covers and bushes showed recurring wear across the 2022 and 2024 tests. Although these are now cleared, the repeated nature of these faults suggests the rubber components may be prone to age. The buyer should also inspect the front exhaust flexi pipe and the oil leak identified in 2024 to ensure these repairs were effective and that the leak has not returned. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for structural corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points is essential, as the 2022 record already flagged corroded rear coil springs.
