2013 KIA Ceed 1.6L Petrol · C6 HMC

The vehicle's most recent MOT test in October 2025 at 73,055 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming it currently meets roadworthiness standards. The test history shows two failures in October 2024 and October 2025, both at similar mileages and also with no defects recorded. This is an unusual pattern; the failures likely stemmed from minor issues rectified before the subsequent passes, but the lack of specific defect details means a buyer should not assume a completely trouble-free past. Overall, the maintenance trend appears stable with no recurring problems flagged. The recorded mileage of 73,055 over 13 years gives an average of roughly 5,620 miles per year, which is low for the car's age. Annual mileage between tests is consistent, with approximately 1,000 to 1,300 miles per year, suggesting steady but light use. This low mileage can reduce wear on consumables but may also indicate periods of standing, which can affect rubber components and battery condition. Given the clean MOT history with no specific defects, a buyer should focus on typical age-related wear. Inspect the underside for corrosion, particularly on suspension mounting points and brake lines. Check the condition of suspension bushes and shock absorbers for any signs of deterioration. Verify the service history to ensure the low mileage is not masking deferred maintenance. A thorough test drive is recommended to assess brake performance and listen for any suspension knocks.
