2016 KIA RIO 1.4L Diesel · LF66 VNJ

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 17 September 2025 at 68,766 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car meets all safety and emissions standards. This stable trend suggests a proactive maintenance approach where the previous owners likely addressed potential issues before they could result in a formal test failure. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,877 miles per year. Between September 2021 at 43,505 miles and September 2025 at 68,766 miles, the car covered roughly 25,000 miles at regular intervals. This low-to-average usage typically reduces the mechanical strain on the drivetrain and aged rubber components, though the regularity of the tests confirms the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of neglect often seen in low-mileage cars. Because the MOT record shows no advisories or recurring faults regarding suspension, corrosion, or brake components, a buyer should focus on verifying consumable items that a stationary test does not capture. Inspect the condition of the tyres for uneven wear and check the brake discs for signs of pitting or thinning despite the low mileage. Given the age of the vehicle, also examine the chassis for early structural rust and rubber bushings for cracks, as these components can degrade over time regardless of the distance driven.
