AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Kia has 11 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 16,841 miles. The vehicle's history of multiple failures and numerous advisories on critical safety systems warrants a thorough inspection.
The vehicle exhibits very low annual usage, averaging only 3,977 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension failures (Apr 2024) and advisories (May 2022) indicate chronic neglect.
- Brake disc advisories (May 2022, May 2023) and pad advisories (May 2022, May 2023) show a long history of wear.
- Tyre advisories (May 2022, May 2023) and a major failure (May 2022) suggest a pattern of poor maintenance.
- The 2025-08-01 test failed due to a fractured coil spring, a major safety component, and passed the same day.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-28, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT history.
- Consistent, low annual mileage suggests light use and potential for longevity.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a well-designed vehicle.
