AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Kia has 12 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 10,435 miles. However, the very low mileage of 32,924 miles over 14 years raises a significant mileage integrity concern.
The vehicle shows extremely low usage, averaging 2,330 miles/year, with a critical 1,184-mile increase between Feb 2023 and Feb 2024, suggesting a possible odometer anomaly.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 32,924 miles over 14 years (Feb 2026) — indicates very low usage.
- Mileage anomaly: 1,184-mile increase between Feb 2023 and Feb 2024 — suggests possible odometer interference.
- Very low annual mileage: 2,330 miles/year — may indicate long periods of inactivity or lack of maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
- Perfect MOT record: 8 consecutive passes with no failures or dangerous defects recorded.
- Long MOT validity: Valid MOT until 2027-02-15, offering significant peace of mind.
