AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2014 Kia has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 20,348 miles. While mileage is normal for its age, the repeated failures and advisories point to potential underlying problems.
The mileage trajectory is highly irregular, with only 7,582 miles recorded between 2017 and 2025, followed by a 10-year gap in MOT history, raising serious concerns about its true usage and maintenance.
Things to check
- Recurring exhaust emissions failures (Apr 2019, Oct 2020) and advisories (Dec 2020, Dec 2025) indicate a persistent issue.
- Multiple tyre advisories (Apr 2019, Mar 2022, Mar 2023) and a steering rack advisory (Apr 2019) suggest chronic wear.
- A 10-year MOT history gap (2021) is highly unusual and raises questions about the vehicle's past.
- The 2014 Kia has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, but this is contradicted by the MOT history showing recurring failures.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- Mileage is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,582 miles per year since 2017.
- No major structural failures or dangerous defects are recorded in the MOT history.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for a 2014 Kia is a positive for overall safety.
