This 2021 Kia has 3 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 17,638 miles. This pattern, combined with recurring tyre advisories, indicates a serious underlying safety and maintenance issue.
The vehicle shows very low annual mileage of 4,970 miles/year, well below the UK average of 8,000, which is a significant red flag for a 2021 car.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jun 2025): Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))

- Brake pad advisory on 2024-06-04 (17,638 mi) escalated to DANGEROUS failure by 2025-06-20.
- Recurring tyre advisories across 2024 and 2025 MOTs (Jun 2024, Jun 2025) — consistent wear pattern.
Working in its favour

- Valid MOT until 2026-06-23 — no immediate retest required.
- No mileage discrepancies or fraud detected in the MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — strong safety pedigree for the model.
