2015 KIA RIO 1.1L Diesel · CV65 EGD

The 2015 Kia Rio presents as roadworthy following a pass on 12 September 2025 at 59,908 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The most recent test came one day after a failure on 11 September 2025 at the same mileage, yet the DVSA entry lists no defects for either event. Such a same-mileage fail-pass sequence typically indicates an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and no advisories or defects appear anywhere in the five-year record. Annual mileage sits low at roughly 5,446 miles per year against an eleven-year age, with the odometer reading 59,908 miles at the latest test. The records show steady, light use: 39,784 miles on 15 September 2022, 44,817 on 20 September 2023, 52,972 on 17 September 2024, and 59,908 by September 2025. No rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps exist between tests, and every annual examination returned a clean result prior to the anomalous 2025 fail-pass pair. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean MOT ledger. Low-mileage cars of this age often suffer from perished rubber components and standing-water corrosion unseen in a test lane, particularly around suspension bushes, brake hoses, and subframe mounts. The absence of advisories means the tester raised no concerns, but the 2025 failure with no listed defect warrants confirmation that the V5C and DVSA portal show a valid pass with no outstanding recall. Given the sparse but consistent record, previous owners appear to have maintained basic annual compliance. The Rio shows no recurring mechanical trend, serious structural risk, or consumable neglect across the data supplied.
