2010 KIA Soul 1.6L Diesel · FN60 JKF

The Kia Soul presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 3 February 2026 at 77,962 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across the recorded history. The February 2026 test shows a failed attempt on the same date and mileage with no defects logged, immediately followed by a pass, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or defects appear on any test in the chain, which points to a clean and consistent record. Annual mileage sits low for a 2010 vehicle, averaging roughly 4,873 miles per year against the 77,962 miles recorded. The tests show steady accumulation: 59,362 miles in March 2023, 63,540 in February 2024, 70,355 in February 2025, and 77,962 in February 2026. The gaps are close to twelve months each with no sudden jumps, and the sparse five-entry history carries no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns across the period. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the car's sixteen-year age and the possibility of long standing periods implied by low use. The clean MOT record offers no evidence of binding calipers, worn coil springs, or failing components, but DVSA tests do not strip panels or measure hidden rust. Verify the February 2026 fail-pass pair with the seller to confirm it was clerical, not a concealed rejection. Check tyres, wiper blades, and fluid condition as consumables regardless of the absent advisories, and confirm service history to support the low-mileage claim.
