2012 KIA Ceed 1.6L Diesel · LC62 NWT

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness profile with a highly stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted in December 2025 at 107,398 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects, indicating the car currently meets all standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the previous owners have maintained the mechanical and safety components effectively to avoid recurring failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-to-moderate vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage recorded between October 2022 and November 2023, where the car covered over 10,000 miles in just thirteen months. However, the usage moderated significantly between November 2023 and December 2024, with only 817 miles recorded over that year-long period. This steady but moderate use reduces the likelihood of premature wear on rubber-based suspension components compared to high-mileage-runners. The only anomaly in the recorded history occurred in November 2023 at 94,302 miles, where the vehicle failed just four miles before a successful pass. Since no specific defect was listed for that failure in the provided data, a buyer should verify if any minor items, such as bulbs or fluid leaks, were immediately rectified. A physical inspection should still focus on checking for structural corrosion on the sills and rear subframe, as these are common areas of concern for vehicles of this age despite a clean digital history.
