This 2018 Kia has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 4,376 miles. However, a significant mileage anomaly and recurring tyre advisories warrant careful investigation.
The vehicle shows very low usage, averaging 1,530 miles/year, with a critical anomaly of 4,376 miles in Dec 2020 and only 12,151 miles in Dec 2025, suggesting potential odometer issues.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 12,151 miles over 8 years (Dec 2025) — a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
- First MOT test on 2020-12-14 recorded only 4,376 miles — this is implausibly low for a 2-year-old vehicle and raises fraud concerns.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-13, indicating current roadworthiness and no immediate retesting costs.
- No dangerous defects recorded across all 7 MOT tests, demonstrating a safe driving history.
- Consistent annual mileage increases (albeit low) since first registration, showing no suspicious gaps or drops.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — one of the safest vehicles in its class.
