AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Kia has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 21,415 miles. The recurring tyre issues, despite being resolved, suggest a need for thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,140 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jul 2025): Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))
- Recurring tyre advisories from 2023 to 2025, escalating to dangerous defects, point to a chronic wear issue.
- Offside Rear Tyre cracking advisory (Jul 2023) and Nearside Rear Tyre cracking (Jul 2025) indicate a systemic problem.
- Brake pad advisory noted in Jul 2025, just before the latest pass, suggests imminent replacement is needed.
Working in its favour
- Consistent, low annual mileage (7,140 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- Valid MOT until July 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
- Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its age.
