2013 KIA RIO 1.2L Petrol · EA63 WCW

The 2013 Kia Rio presents a stable and clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 19 March 2026 at 61,076 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken pass sequence across every available entry. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults, advisories, or recurring mechanical concerns throughout the documented history. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for a thirteen-year-old vehicle. The record shows 46,595 miles at the 30 November 2022 test, rising to 49,390 by 29 November 2023, then 49,455 on 27 March 2024, 54,551 on 21 March 2025, and 61,076 by March 2026. That averages roughly 4,700 miles per year. The sparse, clean record with no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues implies a lightly used car under careful ownership rather than neglected standing. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age, as MOT passes with no defects do not confirm absence of surface rust on sills or subframes. The low mileage and long static periods between tests raise the risk of perished rubber components, stiff suspension bushes, or binding calipers that a short test may not expose. Verify service history independently and check tyre sidewall condition, brake hose flexibility, and coolant age before purchase. The documented MOT data alone supports a sound roadworthy verdict, but does not substitute for hands-on assessment of consumables and hidden structural wear.
