2010 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · WL10 JSX

The 2010 Ford Ka demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent 2025-11-12 MOT at 100,929 miles recording a pass and no defects. All prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed without issues, suggesting consistent maintenance. The single 2022-11-24 failure at 93,797 miles was recorded as a pass with no defects, raising questions about the test outcome but not indicating systemic faults. The absence of recurring mechanical or structural issues in the record implies the vehicle has been well-maintained, though the failed test warrants scrutiny for potential unresolved concerns. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,308 miles annually. The MOTs were conducted consistently each November, with mileage increments of 2,000–2,500 miles between tests, reflecting regular use without prolonged inactivity. No significant gaps or rapid accumulation are evident, and the 100,929-mile reading is within expected parameters for the model’s age. The clean record of passes, aside from the unexplained 2022 failure, suggests the owner prioritized compliance, though no detailed service history is available to confirm this. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common wear items in older vehicles, and check for corrosion in the underbody or exhaust system. The absence of brake-related defects in MOTs does not preclude individual component wear, so a test drive should focus on pedal feel, steering response, and unusual noises. Structural integrity remains unconfirmed by the record, so a thorough visual check for rust or panel damage is advisable. The vehicle’s MOT history indicates no critical risks, but physical inspection is essential to verify the absence of hidden issues.
