AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2011 Kia has 17 MOT tests on record with a 76% pass rate and 23,041 miles. The car's history of neglect, combined with a 1.9L diesel engine, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows normal usage with 23,041 miles over 15 years, averaging 8,351 miles/year, which is consistent with UK driving.

Things to check

  • Dangerous Nearside Front Wheel bearing excessive play (Aug 2024) — a serious safety defect.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (Feb 2019) escalated to dangerous defects (Aug 2024) — indicates poor maintenance.
  • Multiple recurring brake pad advisories (Feb 2019) suggest a pattern of wear items being neglected.
  • The 1.9L diesel engine is prone to head gasket issues, a known Kia Ceed weakness.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until August 2026, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent, normal mileage for its age, indicating regular use without suspicious gaps.
  • No major structural failures or recurring system issues beyond wear items.
  • Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating (2017) provides a strong safety foundation for the model.
