2020 KIA Proceed GT-Line Crdi ISG 1.6L Diesel · M30 GDE

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status, evidenced by the most recent MOT in May 2026 at 64,002 miles where no defects were recorded. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory following a period of identified wear. While previous tests flagged specific consumable issues, the clean sheet from the latest inspection suggests that the owner has addressed the mechanical and safety requirements identified during the earlier years of operation. The mileage pattern is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per year. There is a significant spike in usage between February 2024 at 37,578 miles and May 2026 at 64,002 miles, representing over 26,000 miles driven in just twenty-four months. This rapid accumulation likely explains the accelerated wear noted on brake components during the intervening 2025 test, as the vehicle transitioned from low-use patterns to higher annual mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, as the history shows a recurring pattern of component depletion. The February 2024 test identified pitted front discs and thin pads, while the May 2025 test flagged thin rear pads. Although the 2026 pass indicates no defects, the buyer must verify the current thickness of all pads and check for uneven scoring on the discs. Additionally, the 2025 advisory regarding a perishing rear tyre requires a close check of the sidewalls for age cracking, as rubber degradation occurs regardless of tread depth.
