2010 KIA RIO 1.4L Petrol · HG10 AAY

The Kia Rio holds a roadworthy status following the most recent MOT pass on 2 February 2026 at 83,880 miles. Maintenance trend is stable; annual tests from February 2023 to February 2026 recorded no defects or advisories. The DVSA system logged a failure at the same date and mileage with no faults cited, pointing to a procedural anomaly rather than mechanical defect. Odometer data shows low usage for a 2010 model. In the February 2023 test at 59,713 miles, the car then recorded 72,217 miles in February 2024, 79,724 miles in February 2025, and 83,880 miles in February 2026. Annual distances fell from 12,504 to 4,156 miles. This tapering implies lighter running and possible storage periods. The clean record suggests previous owners kept basic consumables within limits, though sparse advisories limit insight into hidden wear. A buyer should still inspect typical age-related components in person. The tester noted no corrosion or worn suspension bushes, but a sixteen-year-old chassis may conceal sill or subframe rust. Examine brake discs and calipers for binding or pitting after prolonged standing. Tyres and wiper blades degrade with time regardless of tread. Verify exhaust emissions hardware and structural integrity on a ramp before committing funds.
