2009 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · WR09 SXF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on January 6 2026, at 39,161 miles. The maintenance trend appears remarkably stable despite an anomalous failure recorded on November 19 2025, at 39,136 miles. Since the record shows no defects for that specific failure, it likely represents an administrative error or a test-specific glitch rather than a recurring mechanical or structural deficiency. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seventeen-year-old vehicle, averaging only approximately 2,300 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between September 2022 and September 2023, where the car covered only 14,198 miles in twelve months. However, a sharp increase occurred between September 2023 and November 2024, with the vehicle covering 7,458 miles in just fourteen months. This pattern suggests the car may have sat for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components regardless of low mileage. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection for signs of corrosion on the sills, rear wheel arches, and floor pans, as low-use vehicles often suffer from surface rust due to moisture. The tester should also check for seized brake calipers and perished seals, which are common in cars that are not driven frequently. While the MOT history is clean of mechanical failures, the age of the vehicle means that suspension bushes and tyres may be age-checking or cracking despite having significant tread depth.
