Mechanical Assessment
The most recent MOT on 15 November 2023 at 59,326 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming the Kia Ceed remains roadworthy and indicating a stable maintenance trend after the earlier failure at the same mileage. The vehicle is eight years old with an average annual mileage of about 7,400 miles, and the recorded progression shows a rise from 38,507 miles in February 2022 to 47,584 miles in December 2022 (approximately 9,100 miles in ten months) and then to 59,326 miles in November 2023 (about 11,700 miles in eleven months), demonstrating consistent use without prolonged periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, test the rear brakes for binding, inspect the brake discs for scoring or corrosion, and look for any structural rust on the chassis and wheel arches. Check tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition and exhaust emission levels, as these consumables may show wear despite the clean MOT, and verify that any previous advisories have been fully rectified before purchase.
