2022 KIA RIO 1.2L Petrol · EF22 PXT

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT test conducted on 1 July 2025. At 67,635 miles, the car passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This result indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owner has maintained the vehicle up to minimum testing standards without recurring mechanical failures or structural concerns. The recorded mileage of 67,635 miles reflects significant usage for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 17,000 miles annually. This rate suggests consistent motorway use or daily commuting, which typically places different stresses on the drivetrain compared to city driving. Because the last test occurred less than a year ago relative to the current date, the vehicle remains within its valid testing window, though the high mileage necessitates a close look at wear-related items. Given the high mileage relative to the vehicle age, a physical inspection should focus on components subject to high-frequency use. A buyer should examine the suspension geometry, specifically arm bushes and coil springs for signs of premature fatigue or cracking caused by the mileage. The braking system should also be checked for uneven pad wear or thinning discs, as high-mileage vehicles often see accelerated degradation of these consumables. Furthermore, verifying the service history and checking for any fluid leaks is essential to ensure the high annual mileage has not resulted in neglected engine strain.
