AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2015 Kia has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 17,691 miles. The mileage is very low for its age, which is a positive, but the vehicle's safety record is highly compromised.
The vehicle shows very low annual mileage averaging 5,146 miles per year, with consistent readings from 22,711 miles in Feb 2019 to 57,314 miles in Feb 2026, indicating light usage.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Feb 2026): Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
- DANGEROUS defect: Front brake pads worn to 1.5mm (Feb 2020) — a critical safety failure.
- DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Rear Outer Tyre tread depth below 1.6mm (Feb 2026) — immediate safety hazard.
- MAJOR failure: Steering system failed (Feb 2025) — no subsequent advisory, indicating unresolved issues.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until March 2027 — no immediate retesting required.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (5,146 mi/yr) — suggests light use and less wear.
- No evidence of odometer fraud — mileage trajectory is consistent and plausible.
