2015 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · RF15 ADZ

The Ford Ka presents a currently roadworthy status, with the most recent MOT on 26 June 2025 at 35,766 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. This followed a failure on 20 June 2025 at 35,735 miles where the tester noted no defects, pointing to a non-mechanical or procedural rejection rather than a fault. Prior tests in June 2024, June 2023 and June 2022 all passed cleanly with zero advisories, establishing a stable and uneventful maintenance trend across the recorded period. The mileage accumulation reflects light use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. From the 4 June 2022 test at 24,631 miles, the car covered 5,123 miles to the 20 June 2023 examination at 29,754 miles, then settled to roughly 3,000 miles per year thereafter, reaching 32,743 miles on 15 June 2024 and 35,735 miles by 20 June 2025. No significant gaps appear in the annual test schedule, and the sparse but clean record shows no rapid accumulation or neglected intervals. Despite the absence of flagged defects, a buyer should still commission a physical inspection of typical age-related items. The tester logged no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs or structural corrosion, yet low mileage combined with advancing age can mask perished rubber components and minor underbody rust not yet at test threshold. We recommend checking the braking system for binding calipers after prolonged standing, examining exhaust emissions hardware for deterioration, and assessing tyre sidewalls for cracking. The recorded history implies previous owners maintained basic statutory compliance but the brief failure with no defects suggests administrative slip rather than poor care. Given the clean trail, the Ka warrants only routine pre-purchase scrutiny of consumables and hidden structural integrity.
