2018 KIA Niro 1.6L Hybrid electric · GF18 WPM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 2 June 2026 at 82,160 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory following a period of neglect identified in the previous year. While the 2025 test highlighted several weaknesses, the subsequent clean certificate suggests that the owner addressed the necessary brake and tyre repairs to meet으로 standards. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,270 miles per year. Between May 2024 and May 2025, the car covered 7,069 miles, representing a slight dip in annual usage, followed by an increase to 11,939 miles recorded between May 2025 and June 2026. This regularity suggests consistent use rather than long periods of stagnation, which minimizes issues associated with vehicles standing for extended durations. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the rear braking system and front suspension. The May 2025 test at 70,221 miles flagged thin rear pads and pitted, scored discs on both the nearside and offside rear wheels. Although these were likely replaced before the 2026 test, an inspector should check for even wear and any signs of caliper sticking. Additionally, the nearside front tyre wear noted in 2025 indicates a past potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes, which warrants verification against the current tread patterns to ensure the fault is not recurring.
