AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Kia has 17 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 7,594 miles. The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating is a positive, but the car's age and very low usage present significant unknown risks.
The vehicle shows very low usage averaging 2,360 miles/year, with a critical anomaly of 39,367 miles over 17 years (Aug 2018 to Sep 2025) compared to typical UK usage of 8,000 miles/year.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 39,367 mi over 17 years (Aug 2018 to Sep 2025) — 2,360 mi/yr.
- Recurring minor defects: wiper (Aug 2021, Sep 2022), cv boot (Aug 2021, Sep 2022), registration plate lamp (Sep 2022, Sep 2023).
- First MOT test failure: Aug 2018 (19,367 mi) — indicates initial non-compliance.
- Most recent MOT test failure: Sep 2025 (39,367 mi) — recent failure before retest.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-08, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent low annual mileage (2,360 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
- No major recurring failures on safety-critical systems like brakes or suspension.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) demonstrates strong safety features.
