AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2007 Kia has 18 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 1,273 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the extremely low mileage and recurring brake advisories make this vehicle a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows a deeply suspicious mileage trajectory, averaging only 1,970 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage before 2012 and no plausible explanation for such low annual mileage.
Things to check
- Mileage of 36,937 miles over 19 years is extremely low and highly suspicious, indicating potential odometer fraud.
- First MOT test on 2010-08-17 recorded only 1,273 miles, which is implausibly low for a 2007 vehicle.
- Recurring brake system advisories (Sep 2021, Sep 2024) and a DANGEROUS brake failure (Sep 2021) suggest chronic neglect.
- The vehicle has been driven at an average of 1,970 miles per year, which is a significant red flag for fraud.
Working in its favour
- Vehicle has a valid MOT until October 2026, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting the owner has been proactive in addressing issues.
- The Kia Ceed model has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, indicating good safety features.
- The vehicle has a consistent pass history with only one minor failure in 2021.
