2016 KIA RIO 1.2L Petrol · FT16 AEZ

The 2016 Kia Rio presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 June 2025 at 65,413 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the available history. Annual testing from June 2021 through June 2025 shows steady, low annual use. The car covered 31,026 miles in June 2021, then 38,107 in June 2022, 44,818 in June 2023, 54,626 in June 2024, and 65,413 in June 2025. That equates to roughly 6,500 to 10,500 miles per year, consistent with the 6,541 miles per annum average for its age. No gaps or sudden mileage spikes appear in the record, and the absence of any advisories across five consecutive tests suggests the previous keeper addressed wear before each examination. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean paper trail. The MOT record flags no corrosion, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions faults, but testers only record visible defects at the time of test. At ten years old and 65,413 miles, age-related degradation of rubber components, underbody structural integrity, and brake caliper operation can develop between tests without triggering an advisory. Given the sparse but fault-free history, focus the viewing on tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, front and rear brake binding, and any起步 corrosion to sills or subframes. The low mileage implies lighter duty, yet prolonged standing between short journeys can accelerate brake seizing and flat-spotting. The record implies conscientious basic upkeep, but it does not substitute for a hands-on mechanical appraisal.
