AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Kia has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 21,123 miles. While mileage is low, the vehicle's age and repeated advisories warrant a thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,623 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 606 miles between May 2023 and May 2024).
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories and failures across multiple tests (e.g., May 2022, May 2024, May 2025).
- Persistent brake system advisories and failures (e.g., Jul 2018, Jun 2021, May 2025).
- Major headlamp failure recorded on 2014-07-24 (PRS: Nearside Front Headlamp aim too high).
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,623 miles/yr) since 2009 registration.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-06-10, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No mileage discrepancies or fraud detected in the MOT history.
- All past failures were promptly rectified and retested successfully.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety.
