2017 KIA Soul 1.6L Petrol · LW17 AEN

This 2017 Kia Soul presents in an exceptionally sound mechanical condition, demonstrating a stable maintenance trend anchored by a clean pass on 19 May 2025 at 56,011 miles. The vehicle overcame a minor administrative or immediate rectification failure recorded just one mile prior on the exact same day, which resulted in an immediate clear pass without any documented structural or mechanical advisories. Looking back through the history, the preceding tests on 20 May 2024 at 44,282 miles, 9 May 2023 at 30,973 miles, and 9 May 2022 at 20,308 miles all concluded with clean passes and zero defects. This unbroken record of fault-free testing indicates that previous owners maintained the vehicle to a high standard, consistently addressing consumable wear and mechanical upkeep before presenting the car for examination. The mileage accumulation follows a consistent and predictable trajectory across the lifespan of the vehicle, averaging roughly ten to twelve thousand miles annually during the middle years before tapering off slightly. The jump from 20,308 miles in May 2022 to 30,973 miles in May 2023 shows steady medium-range usage, while the subsequent leap to 44,282 miles in May 2024 reflects a period of slightly heavier motorway or commuting duties. Mileage then slowed down moderately between May 2024 and May 2025, adding roughly twelve thousand miles over that twelve-month period. With a current total of 56,011 miles recorded in May 2025, the vehicle sits at a completely normal mileage bracket for its nine-year age, avoiding the risks associated with excessively high wear or long periods of static storage. Given the complete absence of historical advisories across five consecutive test events, buyers will find very few recurring mechanical grievances to target during an in-person viewing. The total lack of past commentary regarding suspension bush degradation, brake binding, or exhaust corrosion suggests that the underbody and running gear have resisted premature degradation. A physical inspection should nevertheless focus on normal consumable items such as brake disc and pad thickness, tyre tread depths across all four corners, and the condition of the lower suspension arms. Checking the service book to verify if the annual oil changes matched the steady mileage accumulation will provide final confirmation of the attentive ownership implied by this clean MOT record.
