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 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 28,696 miles. However, a clear pattern of recurring tyre and brake advisories, including a dangerous tyre defect, indicates a history of reactive maintenance.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 8,080 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories (Mar 2019, Jul 2021, Aug 2022) escalated to dangerous cuts (Jul 2021).
- Recurring brake advisories (Mar 2019, Aug 2022) and major failures (Jul 2021, Jul 2023).
- Persistent handbrake issues (Jul 2020, Jul 2021) and wiper defects (Mar 2019, Jul 2021).
- Engine covers and under trays obscuring inspection (Feb 2017) is a concern.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until August 2026, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (8,080 mi/yr) suggests light, non-abusive use.
