KIA STONIC2018 · 1.0L Petrol

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a perfectly stable maintenance record across the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 16 February 2026 at 32,859 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This clean sheet follows a consistent trend since 2022, suggesting the mechanical and structural components have remained within operating parameters without any recurring failures or developing safety issues. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,100 miles per year. Between February 2022 and 2024, the car covered only 7,850 miles, though it saw a more significant increase of 9,300 miles in the final year leading up to the February 2026 test. This low-use profile typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine-internal components. However, the low annual mileage can sometimes lead to flat-spotting or degraded fluids if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods between these successful annual tests. While the MOT history shows no structural rust or brake-related failures, a physical inspection should focus on items affected by low-mileage operation. Inspect the rubber components, specifically suspension bushes and sidewalls, for signs of cracking or rot due to age rather than wear. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequently-used vehicles often develop oxidation on the friction surfaces. The lack of recorded advisories indicates the previous owners maintained the vehicle well, but the buyer should verify that the service history reflects oil changes performed on an annual basis despite the low mileage.
