AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2015 Kia has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 31,870 miles. While mileage is low and consistent, the repeated advisories and failures point to ongoing maintenance needs.

The vehicle exhibits consistently low annual mileage, averaging 7,655 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent low of 2,586 miles in the last 12 months.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2022-10-25, indicating severe neglect.
  • Recurring brake advisories and failures across multiple tests (e.g., 2022-10-25, 2023-09-28).
  • Recurring suspension advisories and failures across multiple tests (e.g., 2021-10-25, 2025-09-29).
  • Recurring tyre advisories and failures across multiple tests (e.g., 2020-10-26, 2021-10-25).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until April 2027, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (7,655 mi/yr) suggests light use.
  • No major structural corrosion or chassis issues flagged in MOT history.
