2018 KIA Niro 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · HJ18 AFK

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptional roadworthiness trend. The most recent MOT on 25 February 2026 at 72,250 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of five consecutive years of passes without a single advisory or failure, indicating a stable mechanical condition and a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight year old vehicle. Between 11 March 2022 at 45,324 miles and 25 February 2026 at 72,250 miles, the car covered 26,926 miles. This averages to roughly 6,700 miles per year over the last four years, showing a steady and predictable usage pattern without any periods of prolonged standing or sudden spikes in mileage. The absence of advisories regarding brake discs, tyre tread, or suspension bushes over five years is uncommon and suggests the previous owner replaced consumables proactively before they reached the legal limit. There are no recorded instances of corrosion or structural integrity issues, which is a positive indicator for a vehicle of this age. A physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that MOT testers may overlook if they are not yet critical. Check the condition of the hybrid battery health and the service history for oil changes and filter replacements. While the MOT record is flawless, verifying that the manufacturer's service intervals were met will confirm if the internal mechanical health matches the external roadworthiness data.
