2016 KIA Venga 1.6L Petrol · AK66 ACU

The Kia Venga shows a stable and currently roadworthy status, with the most recent MOT on 21 January 2026 at 21,902 miles recording a pass and no defects. The maintenance trend is steady, as every annual test from January 2023 onward returned a clean result. The record includes a failure on 5 January 2023 at 14,235 miles with no defects noted, immediately followed by a pass the same day, pointing to a non-mechanical or administrative cause rather than a fault. Registered in 2016, the vehicle has covered just 21,902 miles in ten years, an average of roughly 2,190 miles per year. Tests dated 5 January 2023 (14,235 miles), 16 January 2024 (16,884 miles), 9 January 2025 (19,346 miles) and 21 January 2026 (21,902 miles) chart a smooth, low annual increment with no missing intervals. The history is sparse but unblemished by advisories, indicating light use rather than deferred maintenance. A buyer should still inspect components vulnerable to low-use deterioration. Standing time promotes perishing of suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls; examine these for cracking. Testers do not flag minor surface corrosion on brake discs or binding calipers unless severe, so check the brakes for free movement and rust pitting. Inspect structural members, sills and subframe for rust that may develop under infrequent washing. No recurring fault pattern emerges from the data, and previous keepers met annual test requirements consistently. Physical verification of fluid ages, flexible hoses and exhaust condition remains prudent given the car’s sedentary profile.
