2024 KIA Niro 3 HEV S-A 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · CJ73 PXP

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 9 April 2026 at 17,446 miles, confirming current roadworthiness, though a failure recorded the same day at 17,444 miles revealed inoperative washer jets and a shallow tyre sidewall cut; the subsequent pass shows these defects were remedied, indicating an improving maintenance trend after the earlier 2025 pass at 7,220 miles. The mileage trajectory shows a typical annual average of about 8,700 miles for a two‑year‑old 2024 Kia Niro, yet the jump from 7,220 miles in April 2025 to 17,444 miles in April 2026 represents roughly 10,200 miles in one year, suggesting a period of more intensive use or a temporary increase in annual mileage. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or binding, inspect the front brake discs and calipers for corrosion or uneven wear, verify that the tyre sidewall cut is limited to the outer sidewall and does not affect the ply, and check the washer system for blocked jets; any signs of structural rust around the wheel arches or chassis should also be assessed. Overall, the recent pass demonstrates that the vehicle is presently roadworthy, but the history of recurring tyre damage and washer failures warrants a thorough in‑person inspection of suspension components, brake health, and structural integrity before purchase.
