AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2018 Kia Niro shows a current roadworthy status with a passed MOT on 30 December 2025 at 155,741 miles, and the maintenance trend across the recorded history is stable with no defects or advisories raised at any stage. The most recent test followed a same-day failure logged at identical mileage with no defects recorded, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Prior to that, the vehicle passed cleanly at each interval back to July 2024. Mileage stands at 155,741 against an eight-year lifespan, averaging roughly 19,468 miles per year, which is high for the model age and points to sustained motorway or commercial-style use. The records show steady accumulation: 127,261 miles in July 2024, 134,449 by January 2025, 144,057 by July 2025, and 155,741 by December 2025. No gaps appear in the test cycle, and the clean sheets at every entry suggest the previous keeper kept statutory testing current but the DVSA data itself carries no advisory detail on wear items. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the elevated annual mileage, as these components degrade silently without triggering MOT advisories in a pass result. The twin 30 December 2025 entries at 155,741 miles with no defects listed warrant confirmation that the failure was clerical and not a concealed emission or identification issue. Given the sparse but clean record, treat the Niro as mechanically sound on paper yet subject to consumable fatigue from high use. Verify in person the condition of tyres, wiper blades, and underbody corrosion, and request service invoices to corroborate that drivetrain intervals were honoured alongside the MOT passes.
