This 2011 Kia has 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 46,113 miles.

Mileage shows normal annual usage (8,481 miles/yr) until Jul 2022, then a significant drop to 130 miles/yr (Aug 2023) and 10,929 miles/yr (Jul 2024), indicating a period of very low usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures (5 major) and advisories (3 tests) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recent Jul 2025 MOT advisory for anti-roll bar link suggests imminent repair needs.
  • Suspiciously low mileage recorded before Jul 2022 (568 mi/yr equivalent) and Aug 2023 (123 mi/yr equivalent).
  • Multiple tyre advisories (5) across 3 tests, including recent Jul 2025, point to ongoing wear.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 08/01/2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent annual mileage (8,481 miles/yr) before the low usage period.
  • No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
