2010 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · SL10 VCX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in November 2024 at 66,151 miles. While the history shows two instances of immediate failure followed by passes, these appear to have been isolated issues that were rectified quickly. The lack of advisories on the most recent successful tests suggests that the owner is proactive in addressing defects immediately to maintain a valid certificate. There is no evidence trend of recurring mechanical degradation or structural failure. The mileage profile is notably low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,134 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap of 10,000 miles between October 2022 and November 2023, followed by another 8,900 miles in the subsequent twelve-month period. This low-frequency usage pattern generally reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components such as bushings, seals, and brake hoses. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the structural integrity, specifically checking the sills and rear suspension mounting points, as vehicles of this era are prone to aggressive corrosion regardless of mileage. Despite the clean MOT record, the low mileage suggests the brake calipers may suffer from seizing or surface rust due to lack of use. Inspect the tyres for dry cracking on the sidewalls, as the age of the rubber often outlasts the tread depth on low-mileage older cars.
