2019 KIA Proceed GT-Line ISG 1.4L Petrol · LD19 LRK

A consistent track record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the history showing a stable trend and very few recorded defects. The latest test result from 19 December 2025 was a pass, which followed a same-day failure specifically for the offside headlamp aim being too low and too far to the left. Beyond this minor lighting adjustment, the record is relatively clean, showing no recurring mechanical failures or structural concerns across its testing history. The recorded mileage of 32,207 miles is low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 4,601 miles per year. This usage pattern typically results in reduced wear on the engine, gearbox, and suspension components compared to higher-mileage examples. However, low annual mileage can often correlate with the degradation of rubber-based components due to age rather than friction, a pattern reflected in the historical advisories for this vehicle. Inspection should focus on the current state of the tyres, as the 2023 test flagged both front and rear tyres for perishing, cracking, and wear close to the legal limit on the front edges. Ensure that all four tyres have been replaced since July 2023 and check for any remaining sidewall cracking or uneven tread wear. During a test drive, listen for any unusual road noise or vibrations that might stem from aged rubber compounds or uneven tyre wear. Verify the operation and alignment of the lighting system, specifically the offside headlamp, to ensure the previous aim failure has been permanently rectified. As the vehicle has a history of low annual usage and previous tyre perishing, a thorough visual inspection of all rubber seals and suspension bushings is recommended to ensure no further age-related degradation has occurred.
