This 2013 Kia has 11 MOT tests on record with a 91% pass rate and 21,960 miles. The recent MOT pass in August 2025 still carries an advisory for a suspension arm, indicating ongoing wear.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,396 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes in its 13-year history.
Things to check
- Recurring brake disc advisories (Aug 2018, Aug 2022, Aug 2023) and suspension arm advisories (Aug 2022, Aug 2024) indicate systemic wear.
- The most recent MOT (Aug 2025) still carries an advisory for a suspension arm, suggesting ongoing maintenance needs.
- The 2017-08-21 test failed on an offside rear tyre cut, though it passed the retest the same day.
Working in its favour
- Clean MOT pass record with no failures across 8 tests.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,396 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- Valid MOT until August 2026, offering immediate peace of mind.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a well-regarded safety record.
