2012 KIA Venga 1.4L Petrol · SO12 AAN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT data. The test conducted in October 2025 at 55,970 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, indicating the car currently meets all regulatory standards. While a failure occurred in September 2025 at 55,662 miles, the lack of recorded defects on that entry suggests a potential administrative error or a non-mechanical failure that was rectified immediately prior to the successful retest. The mileage pattern is notably low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 35,494 miles and September 2024 at 45,993 miles, the car covered 10,499 miles. The most recent interval shows 9,977 miles covered between late 2024 and late 2025. This low usage frequency suggests minimal mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it also increases the risk of component degradation and rubber perish due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage use and age. Since the record shows no recurring structural or suspension faults, the primary concerns shift to surface corrosion on the chassis and exhaust system, which often affects older vehicles that sit. The brakes should be checked for seized calipers or pitted discs, as infrequent use can lead to uneven pad wear. Given the age of the vehicle, the condition of suspension bushes and tyre age is critical, as these materials degrade over time regardless of the low mileage recorded.
