2017 KIA Soul Electric · LR67 EXF

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with six recorded tests and no failures. The most recent test on 19 December 2025 resulted in a pass, although it introduced the first advisories in the vehicle's history regarding the condition of the rear tyres. Prior to this, the vehicle maintained a clean record with no defects noted from 2020 through 2024, indicating a stable mechanical trend. The recorded mileage of 42,328 miles over approximately nine years represents a low annual average of roughly 4,703 miles. Mechanically, this usage pattern typically results in reduced wear on the engine, gearbox, and primary suspension components compared to higher-mileage examples. However, low-use vehicles can experience different wear patterns on rubber components and consumables due to longer periods of standing. Attention should be directed toward the rear axle, as the December 2025 test flagged both the nearside and offside rear tyres as worn close to the legal limit at 3mm, specifically noting wear on the edges. A buyer should verify whether these tyres have been replaced since the test. During a test drive, listen for excessive road noise from the rear and monitor for any instability or steering drift that could suggest wheel alignment issues contributing to the edge wear. Given the absence of recorded failures related to the chassis or braking system, the remaining inspection should focus on operational feel. Check for any knocks or clunks from the suspension when driving over speed bumps and ensure the brake pedal remains firm without judder. Because the MOT history is otherwise clear of defects, the primary objective is to confirm that the recent tyre advisories have been addressed and that the vehicle remains free of any new mechanical noise.
