AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Kia has 8 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 39,855 miles. The recent MOT failure in June 2025, combined with a history of recurring tyre and brake advisories, warrants careful inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,404 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the June 2025 MOT failure occurred immediately after a pass.
Things to check
- June 2025 MOT failure — retested and passed same day, but indicates recent issues.
- Community-reported head gasket issues for 1.5L T-GDI engine — a major potential future cost.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Valid MOT until June 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, normal mileage for its age, suggesting light use.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded.
