This 2010 Kia has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 18,029 miles. The mileage is significantly below average, raising odometer integrity concerns.
The vehicle shows a critically low mileage of 56,779 miles over 16 years, averaging only 3,505 miles per year, which is a significant anomaly and raises odometer fraud concerns.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 56,779 mi over 16 years (Mar 2026).
- Recurring brake system failures and advisories across multiple tests (Mar 2026).
- Brake pads consistently noted as wearing thin or failing (Mar 2023, Mar 2026).
- Suspension arm advisories recurring in 2019 and 2026, indicating ongoing wear.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until March 2027, providing immediate peace of mind.
- No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects recorded in MOT history.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures (e.g., Feb 2022 retest).
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
