2016 Ssangyong Tivoli 1.6L Diesel · KT16 AEK

This SsangYong Tivoli presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of passes. The most recent test on 6 November 2025 at 98,143 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the vehicle is currently meeting the minimum legal safety and environmental standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 9,814 miles per year. Between the August 2023 test at 83,994 miles and the November 2025 test at 98,143 miles, the car covered 14,149 miles over approximately 27 months. This steady usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished seals. The MOT history is unusually clean, showing no recorded defects or advisories across several years. While the records show failures on 15 August 2023 and 17 September 2024, these were resolved on the same day. The lack of detailed failure data in the record suggests these were likely minor issues. There is no evidence of recurring mechanical trends, such as failing suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions problems. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underbody for structural corrosion, as MOT testers sometimes overlook early surface rust that does not yet compromise integrity. Given the mileage is approaching 100,000, checking the service history for timing belt or chain maintenance and transmission fluid changes is advised. The absence of MOT advisories does not guarantee that consumables like tyres and brake pads are not nearing the end of their service life.
