2018 KIA STINGER2.2L Diesel

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, maintaining a consistently stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 17 September 2025 at 43,331 miles resulted in a pass with zero defects or advisories. This clean record across the last five annual tests indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to an exacting standard without any recurring mechanical or structural failures being flagged by the tester. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,416 miles per annum. Between the 2021 test at 19,679 miles and the 2025 test at 43,331 miles, the car covered only 23,652 miles. This consistent low-usage profile suggests that wear on drivetrain components and suspension assemblies remains minimal. However, the low frequency of use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. While the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or mechanical faults, a buyer should focus on specific areas susceptible to low-mileage use. Inspect the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and tyres for cracking or dry rot, as these often age before they wear out through mileage. Check the brake discs for surface pitting or binding calipers which can occur when vehicles are used infrequently. Given the clean record, the vehicle appears to be a well-preserved example of a low-mileage model.
