2016 KIA Venga 1.4L Petrol · CU16 ADO

The most recent MOT, taken on 18 February 2026 at 84,416 miles, shows a clean pass with no defects recorded. That result confirms the car’s current roadworthiness. The overall trend in this record is stable and sound. A prior test on 12 February 2026 failed at 84,274 miles, but with no details logged and a subsequent pass just six days later, this points to a quick rectification rather than any ongoing mechanical weakness. Mileage accumulation sits at roughly 8,400 miles per year for a ten-year-old car. The history shows steady use. Between November 2022 and November 2023, the car covered about 12,000 miles. From November 2023 to February 2025 it rose a further 17,000 miles, indicating firm but unremarkable annual usage. The final recorded jump between February 2025 and February 2026 was about 10,500 miles. Nothing suggests prolonged periods of standing or excessive hard service. The clean MOT history across all five tests is notable; a decade-old vehicle without a single advisory for tyres, brakes, or suspension bushes is a strong sign that previous owners stayed on top of routine upkeep. For the buyer, the printed record is clean, so any remaining concerns rely on a physical inspection. Check the rear torsion beam and its bushes for rubber cracking or delamination, and look at the brake discs for lipping or uneven wear, particularly if the car has sat during the recent test gap. Also probe the underside for surface corrosion on suspension mounting points and the subframe, as rust can develop quietly even when an MOT shows no structural risk. A little evidence of diligent ownership and a currently valid test makes this Venga a reasonable bet provided the real-world condition matches the paperwork.
