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 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 27,486 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated tyre advisories escalating to dangerous defects and the recent major failure warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle exhibits high annual usage, averaging 12,088 miles per year, significantly above the UK average of 8,000, with no suspicious drops or inconsistencies.
Things to check
- Dangerous failure for windscreen washer fluid on 2026-04-17, a safety-critical system.
- Recurring tyre advisories from 2019-03-08 to 2024-03-08, escalating to dangerous defects by 2026-04-17.
- Dangerous failure for front brake pads on 2019-03-08, indicating past neglect of critical safety components.
- Consistent high annual mileage (12,088 mi/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 mi/yr).
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-04-17, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent high annual mileage (12,088 mi/yr) suggests regular use, potentially better for engine longevity.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT history.
