2014 KIA Venga 1.6L Diesel · LD14 XPE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, maintaining a consistent history of passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 22 September 2022 at 112,971 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets the minimum safety requirements without any immediate mechanical or structural failures being flagged by the MOT testing service. The mileage accumulation is remarkably linear and typical for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,400 miles per annum. Between the September 2018 test at 62,224 miles and the September 2022 test at 112,971 miles, the car covered 50,747 miles at a steady rate. This regular usage suggests consistent operation rather than long periods of de-registration, which is generally beneficial for mechanical components such as engine seals and brake assemblies that can suffer from sitting stationary. While the digital record is clean of historical adviserories, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of high-wear areas common to an over-110,000-mile vehicle. Given the age, close attention should be paid to the structural integrity of the underbody for corrosion, as well as the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs. The buyer should also visually inspect the brake discs and calipers for signs of thinning or binding, as the MOT only tests the functional efficiency of these components rather than their overall remaining life.
