KIA XCEED 4 ISG S-A2021 · 1.5L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight decline in mechanical sealness. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 48,619 miles passed, the tester flagged an oil leak that was not deemed excessive enough to cause a failure. This marks a shift from the previous two annual tests in 2024 and 2025, where the vehicle presented with no recorded defects or advisories whatsoever. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual use for a modern crossover, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year. Between April 2024 and April 2025, the car covered 10,256 miles, while a further 11,357 miles were recorded between the April 2025 and 2026 tests. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left to sit for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the health of engine seals and de-corrosion of the suspension components. A buyer should specifically inspect the source of the oil leak identified in the 2026 test to determine if it is a minor gasket seep or a more significant engine seal issue. Although the vehicle failed its April 2024 test at 27,005 miles due to illegal tyre tread depths and uneven wear, the subsequent passes indicate the owner addressed these consumable faults. A physical check of the current tyre wear and alignment remains necessary to ensure the previous edge wear noted on the offside front has not returned due to worn suspension bushes or incorrect geometry.
