This 2018 Kia has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 29,627 miles. While mileage is consistent, the high usage and repeated wear items suggest significant upcoming maintenance costs.
The vehicle exhibits high annual usage, averaging 12,211 miles per year, with consistent readings from 29,627 miles in Feb 2021 to 99,433 miles in Feb 2026, indicating no odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre failures (Feb 2021, Feb 2023, Feb 2025) and advisories (Feb 2023, Feb 2024, Feb 2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Brake disc wear advisories (Feb 2023, Feb 2024, Feb 2025) and handbrake issues (Feb 2023, Feb 2024, Feb 2025) show a pattern of neglect.
- Dangerous tyre defects (Feb 2021) and emissions failure (Feb 2024) highlight past safety and environmental concerns.
- The high annual mileage (12,211 mi/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 mi/yr) means more wear and tear.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-24, offering immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine odometer readings.
- No major structural failures or recurring emissions issues beyond the initial 2024 failure.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2017 (not 2018, but close) suggests a generally safe vehicle.
