2012 KIA Venga 1.4L Petrol · FG12 AEN

The vehicle maintains a high level of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 9 May 2025 at 65,102 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This trend of consecutive clean records over the last five years indicates a stable maintenance history where the vehicle has met all safety and emission standards without recurring mechanical or structural failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a 2012 registration, averaging out approximately 4,650 miles per year. Between May 2021 and May 2025, the car covered 12,216 miles, moving from 52,886 to 65,102 miles. This low annual usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the long intervals between high-distance trips can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components like perished brake lines or flat-spotting on tyres. Given the lack of recorded advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to age-related degradation rather than mileage-based wear. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these can perish over fourteen years regardless of low mileage. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers, which are common in vehicles that sit for extended periods. Additionally inspect the chassis for early signs of structural rust to ensure the structural integrity remains sound as the vehicle enters its second decade.
