2010 KIA Ceed 1.6L Petrol · LD60 LGG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by three consecutive MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in April 2026 at 118,693 miles resulted in no recorded defects, following a trend of clean results over the previous three years. While the vehicle failed a test in April 2024, the immediate pass just four days later indicates that the identified issues were minor or rectified quickly by the owner rather than representing a pattern of mechanical neglect. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,418 miles per year. Data shows that between March 2023 and April 2026, the car covered 23,394 miles, maintaining a steady usage pattern of roughly 7,800 miles annually. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of stationary use which often leads to perished rubber components and component seizing, nor has it faced high-mileage stress that would accelerate wear on the drivetrain and suspension assemblies. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the structural integrity and undercarriage, as the MOT record does not highlight any recurring rust or corrosion issues. Given the age of the 2010 model, the buyer should verify the state of suspension bushes and coil springs, which often degrade at this mileage threshold before triggering an MOT failure. Since the recent tests show no binding calipers or emission failures, the braking system appears to be in good working order, but a check of disc thickness and pad life remains necessary to ensure no rapid wear has occurred between tests.
