Mechanical Assessment

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

The 2018 KIA SOUL has a current roadworthiness status of satisfactory, as evidenced by its recent MOT test on 2025-09-04 at 34,703 miles, where no defects were recorded. The maintenance trend appears to be stable, with no recurring faults or advisories noted across the MOT history. The recorded mileage of 34,703 miles, accumulated over approximately 8 years, suggests a relatively low annual mileage of around 4,338 miles. This is a notable aspect, as lower mileage can imply lighter use or extended periods of inactivity. Notably, there are no significant gaps or rapid mileage accumulations in the provided records, indicating a consistent usage pattern. However, the sparse data points make it difficult to draw more detailed conclusions about the vehicle's usage history. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's brakes in person, given that no recent MOT test has flagged any issues, but the history shows a failed test in 2024 due to an unknown reason, which is not explicitly stated in the provided records. Additionally, the vehicle's suspension components, such as the coil springs and suspension bushes, should be checked for signs of wear or damage, as there are no records of advisories or faults in this area. Furthermore, the buyer should also inspect the vehicle's exhaust emissions, as there are no records of any issues in this area, but it is always a good idea to verify the vehicle's performance and emissions in person.
