2014 KIA Ceed 1.4L Diesel · LC63 AXH

The vehicle appears mechanically stable based on the available data, though the MOT history is significantly outdated. The most recent test on 11 January 2022 at 86,998 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. However, there has been no official roadworthiness certification for over four years relative to the current date of 28 July 2026. The mileage pattern shows a sudden and substantial increase between July 2021 and January 2022. The car covered 24,877 miles in just six months, rising from 62,121 to 86,998 miles. This indicates a period of heavy usage or long-distance commuting. Since the January 2022 test, the mileage has remained stagnant at 86,998, suggesting the vehicle has been stationary for several years. A buyer must prioritise a thorough physical inspection of all rubber components and fluids. Long periods of standing often lead to perished tyres, seized brake calipers, and degraded battery health. The lack of recent testing means the current state of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs is unknown. Particular attention should be paid to the chassis and underbody for signs of corrosion, as dormant vehicles are susceptible to rust in damp environments. A full service is required to address oil degradation and ensure the engine is viable after such a prolonged hiatus. The absence of any recorded advisories in 2021 and 2022 is positive, but these figures no longer reflect the car's current mechanical condition.
