2015 KIA RIO 1.2L Petrol · DP64 OLX

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthiness rating of Pass, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of worsening condition rather than stability or improvement. The most recent test on 2026-02-13 was passed at 92,328 miles, yet this year's test on 2025-02-04 was also passed at 80,040 miles, suggesting the vehicle may have been maintained in a state of relative stability over the past two years. However, the gap between these two tests is significant, with no recorded maintenance between 2024-02-15 and 2023-02-23, implying that basic upkeep was likely skipped during this period. The mileage accumulation pattern reveals a clear acceleration of wear, particularly concerning the drivetrain and suspension components. The vehicle has maintained roughly 8,393 miles per year, which aligns with its 11-year age, but the data is sparse in the latter half. The most critical gap is the absence of any maintenance records from 2023 to 2024, which creates a substantial risk for the drivetrain and suspension. The 2024 test on 74,205 miles is particularly concerning, as it was passed despite a specific failure in the rear tyre tread. This indicates that the vehicle may have been driven too frequently or neglected to address wear on the rear suspension bushings or coil springs, leading to premature failure. Based on the recurring faults and structural risks identified in the history, the buyer must inspect the vehicle's suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components in person. The most severe issue is the near-excessive wear on the rear tyre and the presence of a multiple light source that is not functioning, which suggests a lack of regular inspection of the rear suspension bushings and coil springs. The 2025 test on 80,040 miles was passed, but this is not a sign of a stable system; rather, it confirms that the vehicle has accumulated significant wear on the front lower suspension arm pin and bush that has not been corrected. The 2023 test on 61,457 miles was passed, but the lack of maintenance between 2023 and 2024 means that the front daytime lamp and the rear position lamp are likely to fail soon. Finally, the 2022 test on 53,491 miles was passed, but the child seat fitting restriction means the adult belt is not fully accessible for inspection, which is a critical structural hazard that could compromise the vehicle's safety and integrity.
