2017 KIA Ceed 1.6L Diesel · LC17 GWV

The latest MOT on 26 March 2026 at 48,244 miles recorded a PASS with no defects, confirming the vehicle remains roadworthy. Across five consecutive annual tests the absence of advisories or failures indicates a stable maintenance trend, with no evidence of deteriorating components. Mileage has risen from 32,812 miles in May 2022 to 48,244 miles in March 2026, an average increase of roughly 3,800 miles per year. For a 2017 model this equates to about 5,300 miles annually, well below the typical UK average for a vehicle of this age, suggesting light usage rather than prolonged storage. No abrupt spikes or unexplained gaps appear in the record; the mileage progression is consistent and modest. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of wear items that the MOT does not capture. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, as low‑mileage cars can still suffer uneven wear if rotations were neglected. Examine the front and rear suspension bushes and coil springs for any signs of corrosion or looseness, and check brake discs and pads for glazing or uneven wear, especially given the vehicle’s age. A visual assessment of under‑body rust, exhaust system integrity, and the operation of steering and gearshift linkages will further confirm that the clean MOT history reflects genuine mechanical health.
