2013 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · SL13 NNC

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 21 Nov 2025 at 68,150 miles, having failed the previous day at the same mileage with no defects recorded. The immediate retest success indicates the fault was rectified promptly and the maintenance trend is currently stable, with no ongoing issues evident in the record. Mileage accumulation between Nov 2024 (65,078 mi) and Nov 2025 (68,150 mi) totals only 3,072 mi over roughly 12 months, while the period from July 2023 (63,253 mi) to July 2024 (64,691 mi) added 1,438 mi in about 11 months. This pattern reflects an average of roughly 5,200 mi per year, a low figure for a 13‑year‑old model. The MOT data is sparse after 2023, but the consistent low mileage suggests light use rather than high‑stress operation. Although the MOT history shows no recurring faults, the car’s age and low utilisation can conceal wear in components that receive limited service. A buyer should inspect suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, examine brake discs and pads for corrosion or uneven wear, and check the exhaust and chassis for rust or structural compromise. Tyre tread depth and condition are critical, as low mileage does not guarantee adequate grip. Verify the battery’s electrolyte level and charge state, and assess all fluid levels for signs of stagnation or contamination. Any evidence of prolonged standing, such as seized handbrake mechanisms or degraded rubber seals, should be noted and addressed before purchase.
