2016 KIA Soul 1.6L Diesel · AV66 YTS

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted in June 2025 at 17,329 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean sheet across the last five annual tests indicates that the primary mechanical and structural components have remained in good condition without the development of recurring faults or progressive degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,733 miles per year. Between November 2021 and June 2025, the car covered 5,997 miles, suggesting long periods of stationary or short-distance use. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it can occasionally introduce risks related to seal drying out or brake fluid oxidation. The intervals between tests are regular, with a slight shift in the 2022 test date, yet the vehicle has maintained consistent mileage growth throughout these intervals. Because the MOT history shows no mechanical failures, a buyer should focus on specific areas affected by low-mileage operation. Inspection should check for flat spotting on the tyres and cracking in rubber components such as suspension bushes and wiper blades, which perish from age rather than use. The buyer must also verify the brake discs for corrosion or pitting, as infrequently used brakes often suffer from surface rust. The overall data suggests a vehicle that has been well-preserved and subjected to very minimal mechanical stress compared to high-mileage counterparts.
