2015 KIA Ceed 1.4L Diesel · CV15 XED

The 2015 Kia Ceed presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean pass recorded at the most recent test on 2026-02-19 at 115,052 miles, where the tester logged no defects. The maintenance trend is steady and shows no worsening signals across the five-year MOT span, with every annual examination either passing or showing a same-day failure with no defects noted. Mileage progression tracks typical use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record shows 81,585 miles at the February 2023 test, 93,334 miles in February 2024, 103,880 miles in February 2025, and 115,052 miles in February 2026. That equates to roughly 10,400 to 11,200 miles per year, a consistent pattern with no standing gaps or sudden accumulation spikes. The history is sparse on faults, with only a curious 2025-02-20 failure carrying zero recorded defects before an immediate pass on the same date, implying an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical concern. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and subframe corrosion given the vehicle's age and 115,000-mile accrual. The MOT data flags no advisories on exhaust emissions, binding calipers, or structural integrity, so no recurring wear trend demands correction. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory testing discipline, though the unexplained 2025 same-day fail warrants a check of the DVSA refusal reason. Absent any flagged wear on consumables or serious mechanical risks, the Ceed's documented history supports cautious confidence pending a physical underside review.
