2021 KIA Stonic 2 1.0L Petrol · AF71 POU

The vehicle demonstrates a stable and positive maintenance trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 4 September 2025 at 30,499 miles with zero recorded defects or advisories. This clean bill of health suggests the current owner has addressed previous concerns effectively, leaving the car in a reliable state as of the last inspection. Given that the vehicle has not been tested for over nine months, the lack of recent mechanical failures provides a strong baseline for its current roadworthiness. The recorded mileage of 30,499 miles over a five-year period equates to an average of approximately 6,100 miles per annum, which is well within the expected usage parameters for a modern petrol vehicle. The consistent accumulation of roughly 5,000 miles between the September 2024 and September 2025 tests indicates the car has seen regular, steady use rather than long periods of inactivity. This pattern of moderate, consistent mileage is generally preferable for engine health and battery longevity compared to vehicles that sit idle for extended durations. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, specifically the front discs and pads. While the 2024 test noted that the offside front inner pad was wearing thin, the subsequent 2025 pass implies these components were likely replaced or serviced. Verify the condition of the brake discs for any signs of scoring or lip formation that might indicate the need for imminent replacement. Beyond the braking hardware, the suspension components and tyre sidewalls warrant a visual check for any perishing or impact damage consistent with standard road use, as these items are typical wear points for a vehicle of this age and mileage.
