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 20 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 18,168 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with its extensive and unresolved safety-critical issues, makes it an extremely high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,391 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, but the vehicle's age and recurring safety failures are major concerns.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2025-10-24, indicating severe neglect of critical safety components.
- Recurring DANGEROUS brake failures (2025-10-24) and MAJOR suspension failures (2025-10-24) signal systemic neglect.
- Persistent tyre advisories (14 occurrences) and suspension arm advisories (6 occurrences) across multiple tests.
- The 2011 Kia is a 19 on the insurance group, significantly more expensive than average.
Working in its favour
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,391 miles/year, aligning with UK average.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-10-23, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
