2015 Ford KA 1.2L Petrol · YD15 FFJ

The 2015 Ford Ka presents a clean bill of health across its entire MOT history, with the most recent test on 19 February 2026 at 28,789 miles passing with zero defects. This is a rare and highly favourable record. No advisories, no failures, and no recurring mechanical or structural issues have been flagged at any point. The maintenance trend is not merely stable; it is consistently excellent, indicating a vehicle that has been well cared for and has not developed any of the common age-related faults typically seen on small city cars of this era. The mileage profile tells a clear story of very light use. Over roughly eleven years, the car has covered just 28,789 miles, averaging approximately 2,617 miles per year. The annual increments are remarkably steady: 1,653 miles between February 2024 and February 2025, and 2,161 miles between February 2025 and February 2026. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in accumulation that would suggest the vehicle was parked for extended periods or subjected to harsh short-trip running. The MOT records are complete and consecutive, with no missing years, which reinforces the impression of consistent, responsible ownership. Despite the flawless test record, a buyer should still carry out a thorough in-person inspection. Low-mileage vehicles that spend most of their life on short urban journeys can develop issues that MOT tests do not always catch, such as clutch wear, gearbox synchro deterioration, or DPF clogging from incomplete regeneration cycles. Check the condition of the tyres for sidewall cracking or date-code age, as rubber degrades with time regardless of tread depth. Inspect the underside for surface corrosion on suspension mounting points, subframes, and brake lines, particularly around the rear beam and inner wing arches where Ford KAs of this generation can develop corrosion if not kept in a dry environment. The braking and suspension systems have never warranted a single advisory, which is a strong positive. Still, test the handbrake on an incline and listen for worn top mounts or drop links over rough surfaces. With no structural or mechanical red flags in the documented history, this Ka appears to be a well-maintained, low-mileage example. The onus on the buyer is simply to verify that the physical condition matches the paper trail, paying particular attention to age-related perishables rather than mileage-driven wear.
