2017 KIA SOUL1.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistently stable maintenance history. The most recent test conducted in February 2026 at 29,040 miles resulted in a pass with zero advisories, indicating that the car remains in good mechanical condition. This trend of clean passes across the last five years suggests a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,227 miles per year. Between February 2022 at 15,605 miles and February 2026 at 29,040 miles, the car covered only 13,435 miles. This low usage typically implies minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine internal components, and suspension bushings. However, such low annual mileage can sometimes lead to the aging of rubber-based components or brake corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. While the MOT record shows no defects, a physical inspection should focus on specific areas affected by low-mileage use. Inspect the tyres for flat spots or sidewall cracking, as age often occurs before tread depth is reached. Check the brake discs for surface pitting or seized calipers, which can occur in rarely used vehicles. Additionally, examine the underbody for any signs of surface corrosion to ensure the environment has not compromised the structural integrity despite the lack of recorded failures.
