AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2008 Kia has 16 MOT tests on record with a 94% pass rate and 4,043 miles. While the MOT record itself is generally clean, the mileage anomaly is a fundamental deal-breaker for any buyer.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 18,063 miles over 18 years, with suspiciously low annual usage (e.g., 982 miles/year average) and significant gaps in recorded mileage, indicating a high risk of odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • First MOT test on 2011-07-

Working in its favour

  • The car has consistently passed its MOT tests since its first test in 2011.
