AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2014 Kia has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 18,617 miles. The recurring tyre and brake advisories, combined with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, present a critical contradiction.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,430 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
Things to check
- 2025 MOT gap: No MOT recorded between Sep 2024 and Apr 2026 — critical for safety.
- Recurring Brake System: 7 major failures and 6 related advisories across 12 tests.
- Recurring Tyre System: 6 DANGEROUS defects and 4 related advisories across 12 tests.
- Recurring Exhaust System: 2 major failures and 2 related advisories across 12 tests.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until April 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT history.
