2021 KIA Xceed First Edition Phev S-A 1.6L Hybrid electric · DH21 APX

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 02 June 2026 at 27,279 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that any previous issues identified in prior years have been addressed. This suggests the current owner is proactive in maintaining the vehicle to meet legal standards for roadworthiness testing. At 27,279 miles, the car has covered significantly less distance than the average UK vehicle, averaging approximately 5,456 miles per year. This low usage typically results in less strain on the drivetrain and suspension components. The data shows consistent intervals between the August 2024 test at 18,563 miles and the July 2025 test at 23,484 miles, representing a steady accumulation of roughly 5,000 miles annually which supports a regular driving pattern rather than long periods of stationary storage. The only noted concern in the history occurred during the July 2025 test at 23,484 miles when both the nearside and offside rear tyres were flagged as approaching the legal limit and showing uneven edge wear. While these were resolved by the 2026 pass, the edge wear pattern often indicates a wheel alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. A buyer should inspect the current tyre tread for similar uneven wear and verify that the alignment is set correctly to prevent premature degradation of new rubber. Given the low mileage and PHEV nature, the buyer should also check the brake discs for corrosion or pitting, as vehicles used infrequently can sometimes suffer from surface rust. The record shows no history of structural integrity issues or recurring mechanical failures, but a physical inspection of the undercarriage remains advisable to ensure the low mileage has not masked any degradation in the rubber suspension components.
