KIA CEED2013 · 1.4L Diesel

This 2013 Kia Ceed presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 15 November 2025 at 154,903 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a thirteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 11,916 miles per year. The distance covered between the December 2023 test at 140,731 miles and the November 2025 test at 154,903 miles shows steady, predictable usage. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration. The absence of advisories across multiple tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for wear. High mileage often leads to gradual degradation of these components, which may not always trigger an immediate MOT failure but will affect drive quality and longevity. Priority should be given to checking for structural corrosion on the underbody and sills. The MOT record does not flag rust, but a manual inspection is necessary to ensure the chassis remains sound. Checking the service history for oil changes and timing belt intervals will confirm if the mechanical upkeep matches the clean MOT record.
