2021 KIA Xceed Connect ISG 1.0L Petrol · FV71 DNU

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend across its short MOT history. The most recent test on 15 October 2025 at 7,637 miles resulted in a pass, though it introduced minor advisories regarding tyre condition. This follows a clean result from 31 October 2024 at 5,425 miles, indicating that the primary mechanical and structural components have met minimum standards during both inspections. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,527 miles per year. Between October 2024 and October 2025, the car covered only 2,212 miles, which suggests infrequent use or long periods of stationary storage. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension, it increases the risk of flat-spotting and the perishing of rubber-based components, which appears to be manifesting in the context of the latest test results. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the tyres to address the damage and potential cracking noted on the sidewalls. The 2025 test flagged both the nearside front and nearside rear outer tyres for sidewall damage and a small cut. Because the vehicle sits for long periods, these issues indicate age-related rubber degradation rather than tread wear. The inspector should also check the brake discs for surface corrosion, as low-mileage vehicles often develop rust on the rotors when not used frequently.
