2022 KIA Ceed GT-Line ISG 1.5L Petrol · AR15 MCK

The 2022 Kia Ceed GT-Line ISG holds a current MOT that is valid until 27 October 2026, having passed its most recent test on 28 October 2025 at 25,139 miles. The maintenance trend is stable but not entirely clean. Two suspension advisories were recorded on that pass, indicating the vehicle has a minor, ongoing mechanical issue that has not yet deteriorated to a failure point. No other defects or failures appear in the supplied record, meaning core systems such as brakes, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity were all within acceptable limits at the time of testing. The mileage pattern is straightforward. The car has covered 25,139 miles over roughly four years, averaging approximately 6,285 miles per year. This is a typical annual distance for a lightly used family hatchback. There are no significant gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer readings that would suggest long periods of standing or unusually high recent use. The single recorded test date at the current mileage means the service history relies heavily on this one data point, so a buyer cannot verify whether interim maintenance was carried out between the car's first MOT and the most recent one. The advisories from the October 2025 test deserve attention. Both the nearside and offside front suspension arm pins or bushes were flagged as worn, though not yet causing excessive movement. Front suspension bush wear on a car of this age and mileage is not unusual, but it does suggest the component is approaching the end of its service life. A buyer should inspect the front suspension closely on a test drive, listening for clunking over uneven surfaces and checking for uneven tyre wear, which often accompanies worn bushes. Replacement is not urgent, but budgeting for front-end suspension work is sensible. Beyond the flagged items, a physical inspection should cover the underside for corrosion, particularly around suspension mounting points and the exhaust system, as well as the condition of brake discs and pads given the relatively low annual mileage, which can lead to surface rust and uneven wear from short trips. The tyre sidewalls and tread depths also warrant a close look, since the record shows no advisory on tyres in the most recent test, but consumable wear can change quickly depending on driving style and road conditions.
