MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Kia Ceed (LD62 HBU) between October 2015 and February 2026.

The record contains 12 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 26 February 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (19 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 29 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Front Lower Suspension component ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Lower Suspension component ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”.
