This 2009 Kia has 15 MOT tests on record with a 93% pass rate and 4,572 miles. This makes the vehicle's true condition and history unverifiable.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage averaging 896 miles/year, with a critical 30-mile odometer decrease between the March 2026 failure and subsequent pass, indicating potential tampering.
Things to check
- Critical 30-mile odometer decrease between Mar 2026 failure and subsequent pass.
- Extremely low lifetime mileage of 15,447 miles over 17 years, far below UK average.
- Mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low annual usage (41 mi/yr to 66 mi/yr) and a recent 3,120-mile jump.
- First MOT in Aug 2018 was 8,531 miles, but no test was recorded between Sep 2020 and Aug 2021.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.

- No dangerous defects or major failures recorded in the MOT history.
- Consistent retesting and immediate resolution of minor failures (e.g., wiper).
