2015 KIA RIO 1.2L Petrol · EX15 AEB

This vehicle is in an exceptional state of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 25 March 2026 at 34,201 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to March 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in peak mechanical condition without any recurring failures or advisories. The mileage is remarkably low for an eleven year old car, averaging roughly 3,109 miles per year. The record shows very light usage between April 2023 and March 2024, where the odometer only moved from 27,471 to 27,982 miles. More recent activity shows a steady increase, with 3,056 miles added between April 2025 and March 2026. This low-use profile suggests the car has avoided the typical wear and tear associated with high-mileage urban commuting. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished rubber seals, flat-spotted tyres, or moisture buildup in the braking system. Check for any signs of binding calipers or brake disc corrosion that can occur when a car sits idle for extended periods. Verify the condition of the battery and fluid levels, as infrequent short trips can lead to premature battery failure and sludge buildup in the engine oil. While the MOT history is flawless, a manual check of the suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking is advised to ensure the rubber components have not perished due to age.
