2012 KIA Sedona 3.5L Petrol · AD61 YCM

The Kia Sedona presents as roadworthy following the December 2025 pass at 108,606 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded period. The most recent test cleared with no defects logged, though the same-day December 2025 failure at 108,605 miles with no defects recorded points to an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior to that, the vehicle passed cleanly in January 2025 at 105,292 miles and in December 2023 at 98,058 miles. Mileage sits at a typical 7,758 per year for a 14-year-old vehicle, with 108,606 recorded at the latest test. The gap between the December 2023 pass at 98,058 miles and the November 2024 failure at 105,115 miles shows roughly 7,000 miles added in under twelve months, consistent with steady use. A further 3,491 miles accrued by the January 2025 pass, then only 3,314 miles to the December 2025 tests, indicating slightly reduced annual running in the final year. The DVSA record flags no advisories or defects across any entry, so no recurring wear patterns emerge for suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion. The November 2024 and December 2025 failures with zero defects suggest clerical rejection rather than component failure, implying previous owners kept the vehicle to a basic pass standard without deferred consumable neglect. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside structural integrity, exhaust emissions, and binding calipers given the age and 108,606 miles. The clean MOT history offers no evidence of worsening mechanical risk, but fourteen years of service on original subframes and dampers warrants hands-on verification beyond the test data.
