2019 KIA Niro 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · KX19 AAE

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted in March 2026 at 35,918 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This consistency extends across the previous four tests dating back to 2022, indicating that the vehicle has remained in a stable mechanical condition without any recurring faults or structural failures flagged by testers. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,131 miles per annum. Data shows a steady progression between the 2022 test at 17,494 miles and the 2024 test at 29,241 miles, though a slight jump of 6,421 miles recorded between May 2024 and June 2025 suggests a period of higher usage compared to the earlier years. This low annual mileage typically limits wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can sometimes mask issues if the vehicle sat for extended periods. Because the MOT record shows no history of suspension bushes, binding calipers, or corrosion, a buyer should focus on physical signs of low-mileage use. Inspect the tyres for flat spotting or sidew cracking, which can occur when vehicles are not driven frequently. Check the brake discs for surface pitting, as low-frequency use can lead to oxidation on the rotors. The lack of recorded advisories suggests a well-maintained example, but a physical inspection of the rubber components and underbody remains necessary to ensure no age-related degradation has occurred unnoticed.
